Review

" A powerful and painful account." -- Martin Gilbert, author of "The Holocaust"
" A valuable contribution . . . the lesson that The Pink Triangle elicits from the Holocaust is the realization that we are still haunted by the specters of the Third Reich." -- "San Francisco Chronicle"
"A strong book, not easy to put down . . . Mr. Plant writes convincingly, keeps clear of sentiment, and lays bare a particularly fearful corner of mid-twentieth century inhumanity."-- "The Economist"
