de Gaulle's Memories of War, Rommel's biography, and Eisenhower's Crusade in Europe.

I prefer the printed version over reading on a screen.

hmm, I wonder if there is any mention of the holocaust in those books... surely, there would be some mention? a smidgen perhaps?

No. That's very specific. The three in question are the de facto history of WWII and none mention the holohoax.

The first thing I have that does is the Cavendish Illustrated History of WWII, which was published around 1970 or so. It talks about the magic ovens.

The big three ?/ Was that deGaulle, Churchill and Eisenhower (or was it Stalin) autobiographies, none made any mention of le holohoax whatsoever in the several hundred pages of text about the biggest conflict of modern history, from their personal viewpoint - simply baffling.

Yep, the big three.

I've started reading Memories of War. de Gaulle doesn't fool around, he immediately starts in with how France's army needs to be modernized, and how Hitler actually used de Gaulle's book on the Army of the Future to do his own planning.

ah yes, the magic ovens.. lets not forget the jack off machines of death too.
