David Irving
David Irving is one of the most insidious of Holocaust deniers. This index ties together some of the material that we have about him.
We offer a pamphlet for those seeking a printed concise introduction to Holocaust-denier David Irving and his lies, entitled Who is David Irving? The pamphlet is available in pdf format at: http://www.holocaust-history.org/pamphlets/irving/who-is-irving.pdf For more detail about downloading it see: http://www.holocaust-history.org/questions/irving-technical.shtml
Quite some time ago, David Irving called this pamphlet "lies" and "fiction." Although he constructed a special webpage to reprint it, and has corresponded with us several times, he has been unable to name even one error. In July 1998, he said he would respond - and after a long silence, in January 1999 decided not.
