Master Plan. Himmler´s Scholars and the Holocaust

Himmler founded in 1935 the Ahnenerbe -a research institute to manufacture archaelogical evidence for political purposes- and set about recruiting a bizarre mix of adventures, mystics and reputable scholars to help rewrite all of human history. Pringle paints a portrait of Ahnenerbe and its role in the Holocaust, and reveals the German scientists and scholars who allowed their research to be used to justify extermination.
