A very enjoyable story

I really liked this book. If you're at all interested in the subject, it's a necessary read along with the Nazi Hunters. It gives wonderful background information, and a nice recitation of how they gathered the information.It also shows how shamefully deficient the American legal system was in keeping out or kicking out these criminals. About halfway through he turns into too much of an aggressive prosecutor - and the reason I don't give it five stars is because this attitude keeps escalating through a chapter on John Demjanjuk. [For those who don't know, he's back in the US (and in deportation proceedings AGAIN) after the US sent him to Israel for trial, and their supreme court promptly decided he was NOT who we accused him of being.] If Demjanjuk is truly not "Ivan the Terrible," the author comes off looking pretty silly.At any rate - it's a great book, and contains lots of references to case law and other places you can go to for more information. Plus, it contains partial transcripts from some hearings (including Demjanjuk's) that give a chilling portrait of just how nightmarish the Holocaust was.
