Description

Get into the mind of Simon Wiesenthal, a Nazi hunter, who after his first hand experiences with Nazi Germany made it his mission to never let people forget what happened to the European Jewish people. Israeli author, Simon Wiesenthal's new book "Simon Wiesenthal: The Life and Legends" gives insight on Wiesenthal's role in catching Adolf Eichmann, his friendship with Albert Speer and Kurt Waldheim, out of the ordinary investigative practices he used and the truth about the competition between him and Elie Wiesel. Segev obtained knowledge on all these subjects of Wiesenthal's life through many hundred thousand private papers about Wiesenthal.
