Item No. 49: Jürgen Graf, Carlo Mattogno: Concentration Camp Stutthof and its Function in National Socialist Jewish Policy The NS concentration camp of Stutthof (West Prussia) has never been the subject of scientific study by western historians. Heretofore only Polish communist writings, to be treated with caution, have dealt with Stutthof. According to this literature, Stutthof became a 'makeshift' extermination camp within the so-called 'Final Solution of the Jewish Question' in 1944. Jürgen Graf and Carlo Mattogno have examined this view of Stutthof based on Polish literature and documents located in Russian, Polish, and Dutch archives, paying particular attention to mass transports to and from Stutthof in 1944. The authors prove that the Stutthof camp did not serve as a "makeshift" or any other kind of extermination camp, but that the room claimed to have been used as a homicidal gas chamber was never anything else but a delousing chamber. Concentration Camp Stutthof also sheds some light on the fate of those prisoners who were deported to Auschwitz but were never registered in that camp. The present volume is a milestone of research, with implications for the alleged German extermination program as a whole that no serious historian can afford to ignore. |
