A capture, a trial, and the history between them

Neal Bascomb’s narrative nonfiction connects two moments separated by sixteen years: Adolf Eichmann’s disappearance at the end of World War II and his capture in Argentina, followed by his transfer to Israel for trial. The account places that operation within the history of the Holocaust and the later public reckoning with it. Photographs accompany the text, adding visual documentation to the account. The book’s central subject is both the search for Eichmann and the historical significance of the trial that followed.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in Holocaust history
  • Readers curious about espionage and the capture of Adolf Eichmann
  • Those seeking illustrated narrative nonfiction about a major historical trial

Book overview

A thrilling spy mission, a moving Holocaust story, and a first-class work of narrative nonfiction.

 

This Sydney Taylor Book Award- and YALSA Excellence in Nonfiction Award-winning story of Eichmann's capture is now a major motion picture starring Oscar Isaac and Ben Kingsley, Operation Finale!

 

In 1945, at the end of World War II, Adolf Eichmann, the head of operations for the Nazis' Final Solution, walked into the mountains of Germany and vanished from view. Sixteen years later, an elite team of spies captured him at a bus stop in Argentina and smuggled him to Israel, resulting in one of the century's most important trials -- one that cemented the Holocaust in the public imagination.

 

This is the thrilling and fascinating story of what happened between these two events. Illustrated with powerful photos throughout, impeccably researched, and told with powerful precision, THE NAZI HUNTERS is a can't-miss work of narrative nonfiction for middle-grade and YA readers.
