English translation of the original Rothfels article from 1953 in which a key document, the Gerstein Report was published. Gersteins report contains a graphic description of the gassing of Jews by a German official who was involved with it. Rothfels own evaluation of the authenticity and the historical significance of the document reflects early post-war concerns about the reluctance of some to accept the reality of the gas chambers.
