The listing, The Pink Triangle - The Nazi War Against Homosexuals by Robert Plant has ended.
This is the first comprehensive book in English on the fate of the homosexuals in Nazi Germany. The author, a German refugee, examines the climate and conditions that gave rise to a vicious campaign against Germany’s gays, as directed by Himmler and his SS--persecution that resulted in tens of thousands of arrests and thousands of deaths.
In this Nazi crusade, homosexual prisoners were confined to death camps where, forced to wear pink triangles, they constituted the lowest rung in the camp hierarchy. The horror of camp life is described through diaries, previously untranslated documents, and interviews with and letters from survivors.
Revealing how the anti-homosexual campaign was conducted, the crackpot homophobic fantasies that fueled it, the men who made it possible, and those who were its victims, this chilling book sheds light on a corner of twentieth-century history that has been hidden in the shadows much too long.
This book is a valuable contribution, and makes a "classic addition to gay studies, Holocaust studies, and German history." - Booklist

This book is in good condition. There are remnants of a sticker on the back of the book, though I was able to remove most of the yellow sticker showing on the front cover. One of the pages was earmarked when it was sent to me, which is shown in the final photo. However, the book is still in overall good condition.
