The main events of the Holocaust, when about half of its victims died, took place from March 1942 to February 1943 in Poland. How did the Nazis manage to organize such mass murder in such a short period of time? Where did the human resources come from during the difficult period of the war for Germany? In search of answers to these questions, historian Christopher Browning studied the archives of the Federal Center for the Investigation of National Socialist Crimes, where he found a court decision on the case of the 101st Reserve Police Battalion, which participated in mass murder of Jews in the Lublin district. The case was based on a large number of eyewitness testimonies, striking in their frankness. By Browning's own admission, never before had he seen a picture of the horrific crimes of the Holocaust through which the human faces of the killers were so clearly visible. This book was written based on the study of the case materials. In it, Browning tells the story of the unit and describes how the most ordinary people voluntarily became professional killers.
