Beschrijving
This article mobilizes new evidence from archives in Warsaw and London to document the accumulation of information on who knew what and when of the systematic slaughter of Europe's Jews by the Polish Underground to the government-in exile in London. The author argues that delays in publicizing the genocide resulted from a variety of factors, and that a lack of sufficient intelligence data and widespread disbelief played a more important role than any conscious policy.
