The Beasts of Buchenwald
The Beasts of Buchenwald is the story of extreme lifestyles between those favored by Nazi Germany's Third Reich and the men, women, and children whom Hitler classified as undesirables. It is the story of two members of the Nazi party -- the husband and wife rulers of Buchenwald concentration camp -- who ordered the slaughter of untold numbers of helpless inmates while living a royal lifestyle within the barbed confines of hell before they, too, had to pay for their crimes.
It is the story of Karl Koch, Buchenwald's first and most feared commandant, who rose through the Nazi ranks because of his extreme brutality to prisoners and reigned over one of the most horrific concentration camps in history. And it is also the story of Ilse Koch, on of the Third Reich's most sadistic femail members, whose deeds -- beatings and allegedly furnishing her home with human-skin lampshades-- resulted in the war crimes' trial of the century.
With over 100 photos, The Beasts of Buchenwald is hte riveting story of horrendous crime and ultimate punishment written by acclaimed military historian Flint Whitlock.
