History on Trial
My Day in Court with a Holocaust Denier
by Deborah E. Lipstadt
published by Harper Perennial
History On Trial is the true story of the famous six-year court battle that resulted in an overwhelming victory against twisters of historical facts. Throughout the ordeal, Professor Lipstadt shows enormous courage, and the fact-filled book reminds us -- as does Wiesel's novel Night -- of terrible episodes in our history that the world must never forget.
— Michael Pastore
