The Jewish guards
Supervision in the Dutch Gateway to Hell
2023 || Paperback || Frank van Riet || Nedvision Publishing
When the persecution of Jews in the Netherlands began in 1942, the occupying forces used the refugee camp near Westerbork in the east as a transit camp, without modifications.

2023 || Paperback || Perry Pierik || Aspect Publishers
At the end of 1941, after the invasion of the Soviet Union, an idea of collaboration with the Islamic peoples of the Soviet Union arose among the Germans.

Especially the Turkmen were considered reliable. This led to a large-scale military and political collaboration....

Personality and Power
Builders and Destroyers of Modern Europe
2023 || Paperback || Ian Kershaw || Veltman Distributie Import Books
One of the great historians of our age asks: how far can a single leader alter the course of history?
The modern era saw the emergence of individuals who had command over a terrifying array of instruments of control, persuasion and death.

At the summit of these societies were leaders whose personalities had somehow given them the ability to do whatever they wished.
