Description
Discusses how a series of initiatives vis-a-vis the "Final Solution," proposed mainly from peripheral authorities, reached Hitler in mid-September 1941 and had a cumulative effect on his decision-making process. The second section describes another operational decision in mid-April 1942 in which Himmler personally ordered the murder of 10,000 resettled Jews in the Lodz ghetto.
