Product Description

Product Description

"Denying the Holocaust" by Deborah Lipstadt was originally published in the US in 1993 by The Free Press. It was published in paperback in the UK by Penguin books in 1994. David Irving first complained about the reference to him in the text in letter to Penguin Books during November 1995. He issued a writ claiming damages for libel in September 1996, naming Penguin, Profesor Lipstadt and four individual Waterstones's booksellers as defendants. The writ was in due course served on each of the defendants, although the action against the four booksellers was later dropped. In view of the complexities of the evidence, the parties agreed that the action should be tried by a judge alone and Mr Justice Gray was assigned the case. The trial opened in the High Court in London on Tuesday 11 January 2000 and closing speeches were heard on Wednesday 15 March 2000. Mr Justice Gray delivered his judgment in favour of the defendants on Tuesday 11 April 2000. This text docments the trial.

5.0 out of 5 stars Autopsy of David Irving's Legal Hara-Kiri, 9 Aug 2000
By A Customer
David Irving took umbrage at... his critic, Prof. Deborah Lipstadt of Emory University, by suing her for libel. Unable to shake any loose settlement change down from Lipstadt or her publisher, Penguin, Irving earlier this year went into the High Court to make his case.

Both sides agreed beforehand that the case would be decided without a jury. The judge, Charles Gray, heard many weeks of testimony and saw literally thousands of pages of expert reports. And after carefully assessing this mountain of evidence... Gray spelled out his reasoning in great detail in the judgment, and it's a pleasure to read...Now Penguin has published the judgment as an inexpensive paperback, with proceeds going to a children's hospital. So purchasing this book has three rewards -- the opportunity to see the comprehensive demolition by Justice Gray of the central arguments of the Holocaust deniers, the chance to congratulate Penguin for not caving in to a bully, and -- not the least -- a chance to make an indirect contribution to the charity Penguin Books has designated.
