Think of this like a buffet. Just try whatever looks interesting, in whatever order.

For easy searching by subject, please see the Holocaust Encyclopedia.

Media Appearances and Debates

These are conversational in style and excellent for a general audience.
Documentaries

The first two are explorations of general propaganda and manipulation. The others are direct attacks on key Holocaust claims.
Introductory Articles Introductory Books

There are several general overviews available. It is good to read at least one of these early on.
  • Thomas Dalton, Debating the Holocaust Readable, well-organized, concise, and reasonably comprehensive. Popularizes some of less accessible revisionist work, especially Mattogno.
  • Samuel Crowell, The Gas Chamber of Sherlock Holmes [part 1 only] [Free Online] A study of how the gas chamber myth originated. Explores such factors as WWI chemical warfare and epidemics and delousing procedures that gave rise to it.
  • Nicholas Kollerstrom, Breaking the Spell Kollerstrom, a specialist in history of science, has good coverage of certain technical issues and some original research on the Enigma decrypts, all presented in a casual style.
  • Arthur Butz, The Hoax of the Twentieth Century [Free Online] This 1976 classic is by now very dated and does not reflect our current state of knowledge. The book is also a bit of a challenge to read as it is quite broad, examining the "hoax" as a whole, but also going quite deep into the details. Yet it remains relevant as there's no other book quite like it. In many ways, this was the foundation for modern Holocaust revisionism. Additionally, whereas most revisionist works focus on showing why the established history is false, this book goes further in explaining how and why "the hoax" developed.
  • Germar Rudolf, Lectures on the Holocaust [Free Online] A long but readable introduction presented in a distinctive dialogue format. Covers a wide range of topics, including a lot of material not found in other overviews.
Some other possibilities Holocaust Handbooks

The most important repository of revisionist literature is undoubtedly the Holocaust Handbooks collection which now includes over 50 volumes, many of them authored by the tireless Italian revisionist Carlo Mattogno. Many of the volumes are a bit too specialized and detailed for the general reader. Volume 24 for example will tell you more than ever wanted to know about cremation furnaces. But when you are ready to dip your toe into this series, the titles below would be reasonable choices.
