Could it happen again?
Hitler is dead and not coming back. But before Hitler came to power and made everything terrible, almost no one took him seriously. Instead, he was seen as a funny figure to laugh at. The illustrated fact book about the Second World War and the Holocaust tells about the war and what led up to it. If we can learn to recognize the processes, we can make sure it doesn't happen again.
