This aerial view shows the layout of the largest concentration camp and death camp run by Nazi Germany during World War II at Auschwitz near the Polish town of Oswiecim, Poland, Aug. 25, 1944. Auschwitz is the main camp and Birkenau is the nearby extermination center. (AP Photo)

Steven Katz , director of the Elie Wiesel Center for Judaic Studies at Boston University who is not connected with the project, said the encyclopedia will be "enormously useful." Though it will have few surprises for scholars, others using it as a reference tool "will be astonished at the scope of the Nazi enterprise" and the collusion of German industry, he said.
Second Amendment bump.
But of course, nobody knew about it
As much as I hate to recommend PBS productions...
I HIGHLY recommend the following offering:
Auschwitz: Inside The Nazi State
http://www.pbs.org/auschwitz/
http://www.shoppbs.org/product/index.jsp?productId=1915639&cp&keywords=Auschwitz&y=2&searchId=18904821861&x=25&parentPage=search
It was a well-done production, with interweaving of excellent time-period
re-enactments and interviews with survivors.
About the only negative are some guests of the discussion panels and
the moderator Linda Ellerbee.
Also, if you see the show, don't have a heart attack about the former SS
guard Oskar Gruning. He's a disgusting piece of work, but watch the whole
show before passing final judgement.

These photos are so compelling. This is why the Israelis should take a deep breath, and put out compelling photos with indepth stories of the atrocities committed by muslims.
