From Library Journal
On February 16, 1987, John Demjanjuk, a Ukrainian guard known by inmates at the infamous Treblinka concentration camp as "Ivan the Terrible," went on trial in Jerusalem for Nazi war crimes. Teicholz sketches out briefly the Holocaust in Eastern Europe, particularly focusing on the camps in Poland and the fate of Jews at the hands of Nazis and their Ukrainian collaborators. He also describes Demjanjuk's role in the Russian army, subsequent capture by the Germans, and role as a guard at Treblinka. The major part of this book, however, is about Demjanjuk's trial in Israel after being deported by the United States for having filed false immigration papers after the war, hiding his Nazi past. This journalistic account sets the record straight on this long-percolating case. A riveting tale of inhumanity that is recommended to a wide audience.

From Publishers Weekly
New York City attorney Teicholz's powerfully dramatic reporting lifts the 1987 trial of convicted mass murderer John Demjanjuk to the level of the Adolf Eichmann trial in its moral intensity. A Ukrainian-born Cleveland factory worker, Demjanjuk was stripped of his U.S. citizenship and deported to Israel, accused of being "Ivan the Terrible," sadistic Nazi butcher of the Treblinka death camp who personally murdered or tortured tens of thousands. At the trial, which the author attended, many survivors of Treblinka testified that Demjanjuk was Ivan. In his defense, he claimed it was a case of mistaken identity, yet the overwhelming weight of the evidence, as presented here, attests to his guilt. Teicholz clears up apparent inconsistencies in the documents that helped convict Demjanjuk. His moving account towers above the media's superficial reportage on the trial.
