The First Holocaust: The Suprising Origin of the Six Million Figure

This video, based on Heddesheimer's book The First Holocaust, explores this issue in depth. It discusses sources from the 1800s and from the time prior to, during and after the FIRST World War claiming that six million Jews were about to be exterminated in a "holocaust."
