"If you take a thousand-page book about World War II, the concentration camps would take up two pages and the gas chambers would take up 10 to 15 lines. That's what I call a detail."

Well if that the way ge wants judge..... since the book is a thousand pages and the war lasted over four yeas and France only lasted six weeks then I guess France's contrbution to the fight would only be a small foot note at the bottom of the page. Or perhaps something illegible written in the margin.

If an estimated fifty million died in WWII, and 6 million of them were Jews who died in the Holocaust, then the Holocaust should take up 5-10% of the book, not .2 percent
