The Fuehrer in Perspective (1974) Review of a Hitler biography by the famous novelist and intellectual, Colin Wilson. Supportive comments are made in the article about Richard Verrall’s revisionist booklet, Did Six Million Really Die? Wilson expresses his surprise at the article and finds it r ...
There’s understandably a lot of frustration from revisionists over the sheer volume of holocaust and WWII related films and media - see various threads on here.

Broader geography for the Holocaust would be considering regions and countries: histories of the persecution and murder of Jews in the Warthegau, not just histories of Chelmno; histories of the Holocaust in Lithuania, and so on. But also histories of the concentration camp system such as Nikolaus ...
I think the simplest argument for the mainstream account is that it is an account: it can produce historical narratives from a variety of perspectives and levels, with much broader coverage geographically and thematically, based on sources. Revisionism is hardly ever presented in narrative form ...
I see, you are saying the policy was to murder a certain fraction (the unfit), in certain Locations but not others?
