On May 11,1960,in a suburb of Buenos Aires, Ricardo Klement was kidnapped.With his consent he was smuggled to Israel, there to face trial in the spring of 1961 as Adolf Eichmann,the arch-murderer of Nazism,a man indicted at the Nuremburg trials,it was thought posthumously, for the systematic extermination of six million human beings,men,women and children; for his responsibility for the organization of the mass shootings,the gas chambers,the furnaces,the drownings,the 'medical experiments';for Belsen, Auschwitz,Dachau,Ravensbruck,and the other monuments to man's bestiality to man. Adolf Eichmann,the administrator of the 'Final Solution',the liquidation of the world's Jewry. What Eichmann did - the all-too tangible results of his career - is known to a world now determinedly and all-too-readily trying to forget.Who Eichmann is, the story of his own life in Germany,in Occupied Europe,and as a fugitive from international justice,has until now been a mystery to nearly all. The exceptions were the security forces and underground movements of Israel,who since 1945 have painstakingly compiled a complete picture of a man believed dead,constructing piece by piece the net with which Israeli agents dramatically snared Adolf Eichmann one evening in May. Ephraim Katz and Zwy Aldouby are both ex-members of an Israeli underground movement, devoted for many years to the compilation of the most complete dossier of Eichmann in existence. Photographs,affidavits,testimonies,were gathered together; secret Nazi documents,even Eichmann's tape recorded 'memoirs' were traced,'borrowed', copied and studied - and,on the capture of their subject were placed in the hands of Quentin Reynolds. The result is this most authoritative,indeed unique,book.A biography which traces the life from schooldays to a well guarded prison in Israel of an insignificant Nazi who became Hitler's Minister of Death.An incredible,sordid, bestial career,for which Eichmann faces a trial that can only end with one verdict,but no fitting punishment.It will be a trial,and this is a book,which will shock the world.
