Commentary In Favor Of Books The Murderers Among Us

In a drab Vienna office, a very ordinary - looking man pours over the letters and documents strewn across his desk. His name is Simon Wiesenthal. He is balding, slightly paunchy, and usually dressed in a plain, gray business suit. Yet, this man is the most feared avenger in the world, and his inconspicuous office is the center of an incredible international tracking network responsible for the capture of nearly 1,000 notorious Nazi's! Adolf Eichmann, Franz Stangl, Commandant of the Sobibor and Treblinka death camps, Murer, "the Butcher of Wilna," Silberbauer, the Gestapo agent who arrested Anne Frank — the list of his "clients" reads like a Who's Who of Hell...
THE MURDERERS AMONG US is the terrifying story of this man, and of how and why he earned the label, "The world's most relentless Nazi-Hunter!"
"Reads like a fascinating detective thriller.. .You just can't lay the book down."

Judge Appertaining To Books The Murderers Among Us

The emotions felt while reading this book was difficult to explain. Someone actually had to hunt down the monsters that left one of the darkest marks on human history? Seriously? Not so proud about my species.

This book has an interesting niche when it comes to writings about the aftermath of World War II. For a variety of reasons, I tend to reflect often about the problem of anti-Semitism [1], and this book provides the immensely worthwhile perspective of someone who barely survived World War II and then devoted his postwar life to helping bring the murderers of the SS to justice from his base in Austria. One can understand his passion for justice to the extent that one has survived injustice, and it

Persistence pays off. I think this story is a great reminder of why we cannot give up. I was appalled that nation's thought it was more important to "forgive & forget" the horrible things the Nazis did in the Holocaust. Having a statue of limitations on mass torture/murder when the Nazis had no limits really on their sadism & wealth/connections to escape (Odessa).Wiesenthal reminds us that we CANNOT EVER FORGET!!!

This book gives some of stories of Wiesenthal's 'clients' - the Nazis he located and help bring to justice. And some of those who managed to escape justice. It's amazing to me the perspective that he was able to maintain - he was not consumed with hate or bitterness, just a need to see justice done by all sides. He is someone I would love to meet - maybe that will be possible in the next phase of life.

Interesante. Me dejó pensando mucho.

I read this book shortly after it was published. It has never been forgotten. It stands as a testimony to man's ability to subjugate those who are weaker or considered inferior.

This very early Wiesenthal book is one of his best. Simon is a wonderful story teller, managing to describe his various hunts with humor and in captivating style, and when this book was writte, he was still his initial self, without too much of the world's fuss and friction around him. In this book you can also find Simon's story of his experience in the holocaust, the part he was willing to detail this early in his writing career.Highly recommended, I enjoyed this book.
