A pamphlet produced almost immediately post-war for an exhibition of photographs of German Concentration Camps and destroyed Arnhem. This includes the famous and controversial photograph of the Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel in Buchenweld, which was first published in the 'New York Times.' It does not include any images of Arnhem.

It also eventually built enough support for the War Crimes trials.
