The Coming of the Holocaust aims to help readers understand the circumstances that made the Holocaust possible. Peter Kenez shows that three preconditions had to exist for the genocide to occur: modern anti-Semitism; an extremist group taking control of a powerful modern state; and the context of a major war.
