1. Freedom at Midnight. Published in the 70s I think.

It is excellent.

The same guys wrote Is Paris Burning? about the liberation of Paris in WW2.
Both big best sellers in their day.

2. Yes..one of the best books I have ever read

by Larry Collins and Dominique LaPierre. It reads like a best-selling novel, but it's historical fact.

3. Popular history at its best.

4. I had a friend who described box cars of

corpses arriving from the slaughter in the transition zones.
