Taboo-Breaking Books and Documentaries

"Enlightenment is man’s leaving his self-caused immaturity. Immaturity is the incapacity to use one’s intelligence without the guidance of another. Such immaturity is self-caused, if it is not caused by lack of intelligence, but by lack of determination and courage to use one’s intelligence without being guided by another. Sapere Aude! [dare to know] Have the courage to use your own intelligence! is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

That is the famous German philosopher Immanuel Kant speaking in 1784.

This website is about enlightenment, maturity, and courage:

  1. It aims at enlightening all its visitors about one of the most influential issues of modern history: The alleged deliberate mass murder of six million Jews by Nazi Germany mainly by means of gas chambers during World War Two.
  2. It requires that the visitor be mature, that is: that he or she is capable of using their own intelligence without the guidance of another.
  3. And finally, it requires courage to open the mind to well-founded, rational, yet at once truly mind-blowing and, some would say, sacrilegious thoughts.

Are you ready for your own dose of enlightenment? Watch, listen and read, and find out for yourself!

Germar Rudolf: The Chemistry of Auschwitz—Buna Rubber, Zyklon B, Prussian Blue and the Gas Chambers

click for a larger versionWatch Now!

Auschwitz was a center of chemistry. The German chemical industry built gigantic factories for rubber, fuel, lubricants and methanol there, and the SS experimented with natural sources of rubber. But that's not what people associate with the name "Auschwitz." They think of gas chambers and Zyklon B, which are two entirely chemical things as well.

The gas chambers of Auschwitz have been called the epicenter of human suffering. More human beings are said to have died a violent death there than on any other place on earth in the history of mankind.

The biggest crime scene of history, in terms of its death toll, not only demands the utmost respect for its victims, but should also attract the most-intensive attention of forensic researchers to find out what exactly happened, and how. Or so one might think.

Forensic research on Auschwitz, however, has always been controversial. Investigating the gas chamber mass murder is considered a blasphemous act, a way of disturbing the peace of the dead.

While respecting the victims, whether of foul play or of circumstance, this documentary nonetheless tries to conduct Auschwitz research on the basis of the forensic sciences, where material traces of the crime and their interpretation reign supreme. Although it is generally agreed that no autopsy of any victim has ever been performed, most of the claimed crime scenes – the chemical slaughterhouses called gas chambers – are still accessible to forensic examination to a greater or lesser degree. So, how did these gas chambers of Auschwitz look like? How did they operate? What were they used for? In addition, the infamous Zyklon B can also be examined. What exactly hides behind this ominous name? How does it kill? And what effect has it on masonry? Does it leave traces that can be found still today?

These and many other questions are thoroughly examined in this documentary. The horror of Auschwitz is meticulously dissected, and thus, for the first time, it really becomes comprehensible.

This video documentary accompanies the book of the same title, which is Volume 2 of the series "Holocaust Handbooks."

Don't Know Where to Start?

Start with a Free Movie

To ease you into the subject, we recommend that you sit back, relax and watch an introductory documentary. There are several choices we recommend:

  • Holocaust, Hate Speech & Were the Germans so Stupid? (35 min.)
    The late British video-journalist Anthony Lawson, a retired international-prize-winning commercials director, cameraman, ad agency creative director and voice over, expertly introduces the viewer to the basic concepts and consequences of scepticism about the orthodox Holocaust narrative.
  • The First Holocaust: The Surprising Origin of the Six-Million Figure (1 hr 10 min.)
    German-born Chemist, publisher and editor Germar Rudolf reveals how the myth of six million persecuted Jews threatened by a holocaust was created in the late eighteenhundreds (yes 1800s!), became a popular theme during and after the FIRST World War (not the Second), and has stayed with us ever since.
  • Probing the Holocaust: The Horror Explained (1 hr 36 min.)
    Documentary filmmaker Germar Rudolf shows with a few pertinent, well-documented examples – the cases of the Dachau, Nordhausen and Bergen-Belsen Camps – why it is important to distrust wartime propaganda about claimed Nazi atrocities, not the least because much of this propaganda has been admitted by mainstream historians to have been mendacious.

If you're hungry for more, you can browse any of our documentaries, or, if you want to delve into the matter even deeper, you may want to start reading our books, whose information density is easily tenfold that of a documentary.

Read a Leaflet or a Brochure

  • The Holocaust Controversy: The Case for Open Debate: This letter-size flyer puts into a nutshell what Holocaust revisionism is all about. You can take the above PDF file to your local printer or copy shop, and have them print as many copies as you like, for your own use, to hand it out, even to sell it, if you wish. We even sell this item, folded up, in sets of 100. Please note that the flyer is meant to be folded twice; instructions on how can be found at the bottom of the second PDF page. Most printers and copy shops can do the folding automatically for you.
  • Letter-Size Flyer HOLOCAUST REVISIONISM IN 60 SECONDS by Thomas Dalton, PhD: This double-sided letter-size leaflet also gives the novice a brief introduction into what Holocaust Revisionism is. It has a different format (plain letter-size), writing style and contents than the above leaflet. You can take the above PDF file to your local printer or copy shop as well, and have them print as many copies as you like, for your own use, to hand it out, even to sell it, if you wish.
  • Holocaust Skepticism: 20 Questions and Answers about Holocaust Revisionism: This stapled, full-color brochure of 15 pages introduces the novice to the concept of Holocaust revisionism, and answers 20 tough questions, among them: What does Holocaust revisionism claim? Why should I take Holocaust revisionism more seriously than the claim that the earth is flat? What about the pictures of corpse piles in the camps? How about the testimonies by survivors and confessions by perpetrators? What does it matter whether prisoners died from disease or poison gas? You can take the above PDF file to your local printer or copy shop, and have them print as many copies as you like (color or black & white), for your own use, to hand it out, even to sell it, if you wish. You can also order hard copies of it here.
  • The Holocaust: Facts versus Fiction: This 29-page booklet gives a condensed overview of the latest research on the Holocaust with references to literature where you can find more on the subject. It also explains why the issue is important and why many governments brutally suppresses dissenting views. It contains lots of references to free e-books and videos, and it lists the entire book program of Castle Hill Publishers (at the time of going to press). You can download it right here .

Read Our Books

Most of our books on the "Holocaust" you can download, read and even distribute free of charge as an eBook (as PDF and, for most, as a Kindle). Our series Holocaust Handbooks currently encompasses 41 books, 35 of which have been published, while the rest is in various stages of preparation. Many of these books are highly specialized, which can be rather confusing and discouraging for most of you who just want it in a nutshell. Hence, below we give a brief guide as to what we recommend for those dipping their feet into this topic for the first time, or for those who want a somewhat deeper, yet still general immersion into it.
The first three books are unfortunately commercial in nature and are not available as free downloads (and the first isn't even part of our series). The last one, however, and indubitably also the most up-to-date and comprehensive one, is available as a free download, so maybe you want to start there.

Holocaust 101

T. Dalton, 'The Holocaust: An Introduction'

The best brief introduction into the topic of the Holocaust is Thomas Dalton's The Holocaust: An Introduction. It has merely 115 pages of text in a handy, small paperback format of 5x8 inches, and it costs only $10/£8 as a hard copy. Amazon customer E.J. Peterson, a verified buyer of the book, wrote the following brief review about it (on March 6, 2017, Amazon blocked all our books and deleted all associated book reviews, so you can't find the reviews quoted here anymore – so much about freedom of speech...):

Phenomenal. A fantastic starting point.
For a 115 page book, it is a truly shocking and eye-opening work. I cannot recommend this highly enough. Honestly, subject your accepted opinion on the matter to this 1 hour read and see where you sit after that.

Holocaust 201

  1. T. Dalton, 'Debating the Holocaust: A New Look at Both Sides'

    The above-mentioned brief introduction into the topic is a condensation of a more encompassing study which Dalton first published in 2008: Debating the Holocaust: A New Look at Both Sides. He released updated editions of that book in 2015 and 2017. In this book, Dalton studies the topic more thoroughly by juxtaposing the most important arguments of all contending sides in the raging debate about the "Holocaust," which, some say, should not be debated in the first place. The book has some 300 pages of text of a larger format (6x9 inches). At $25/£18 as a hard copy, it's still a steal. Amazon customer "patito," a verified buyer of the book, wrote this brief review about it:

    Most important Holocaust book in this moment
    The updates to the 2015 edition are especially important as the author corrects and forwards a proposal towards the end. A very good compilation of the real state of affairs regarding the actual evidence for one argument or the other. The Epilogue is especially critical to understanding the whole picture.

  2. N. Kollerstrom, 'Breaking the Spell: The Holocaust, Myth & Reality'

    In his book Breaking the Spell: The Holocaust, Myth & Reality, now available in its 2019 5th edition, science historian Dr. Nicholas Kollerstrom explains the Holocaust issue for the common reader from a scientific, but also from a societal point of view. This paperback book has some 250 pages of text (6x9 inches). At $25/£20 as a hard copy, it has been our best-selling book ever since it was first published. Amazon customer "Giordano Bruno," a Amazon-verified buyer of the book, wrote this brief review about it:

    Myth Busting
    An interesting and informative book, particularly how it expresses that the “Holocaust” has basically become a sacred religion that cannot be challenged even by science. Anyone who dares to criticise or explain that certain narratives of the holocaust are physically impossible is instantly branded as a heretic and excommunicated. Would definitely recommend reading it!

Holocaust 301

G. Rudolf, 'Lectures on the Holocaust: Controversial Issues Cross Examined'

At 510 pages of text, the Lectures on the Holocaust have been characterized as encyclopedic in their coverage of the topic, yet at the same time as a truly riveting read. Written in an unusual dialogue form, it draws you right into the debate the author engages in. This is a brandnew edition issued in July 2017, which is greatly improved by new material. It costs merely $30/£25 as a hard copy. Amazon customer "HolocaustHistory channel," a verified buyer of the book (he bought it from us, not from Amazon), wrote this brief review about it:

Outstanding
This is without doubt one of the best treatments of the holocaust debate. Rudolf is judicious and moderate throughout, and packs in a great deal of information. By writing dialogues, he gives himself the opportunity to give clear answers to many the questions that will occur to the reader. If you are at all interested in the holocaust, you have to read this book.
