CFH member Franklin H. Littell has edited a book of essays entitled

Hyping The Holocaust: Scholars Answer Goldhagen. In it scholars from

several countries weigh in on the controversy now swirling around the

book by the Harvard poltical scientist Daniel Goldhagen, Hitler's Willing

Executioners. The writers do not pull punches in their criticism of

Goldhagen, and the incisive essays make for stimulating reading. You

may order a copy for $20.00 from The Philadelphia Center on the

Holocaust, P.O. Box 10, Merion Station, PA 19066-0010. Tell your library to
