The Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller (October 2018)
Confronting Nazi evil is the subject of the latest installment in the mega-bestselling Killing series
As the true horrors of the Third Reich began to be exposed immediately after World War II, the Nazi war criminals who committed genocide went on the run. A few were swiftly caught, including the notorious SS leader, Heinrich Himmler. Others, however, evaded capture through a sophisticated Nazi organization designed to hide them. Among those war criminals were Josef Mengele, the “Angel of Death†who performed hideous medical experiments at Auschwitz; Martin Bormann, Hitler’s brutal personal secretary; Klaus Barbie, the cruel "Butcher of Lyon"; and perhaps the most awful Nazi of all Adolf Eichmann.
Killing the SS is the epic saga of the espionage and daring waged by self-styled "Nazi hunters." This determined and disparate group included a French husband and wife team, an American lawyer who served in the army on D-Day, a German prosecutor who had signed an oath to the Nazi Party, Israeli Mossad agents, and a death camp survivor. Over decades, these men and women scoured the world, tracking down the SS fugitives and bringing them to justice, which often meant death.
Written in the fast-paced style of the Killing series, Killing the SS will educate and stun the reader.
The final chapter is truly shocking.

"There have been over a thousand books written about the biggest stain on the human race… the Holocaust… the Nazi’s attempt at destroying the entire Jewish race… through their “Final Solutionâ€. I have… and will continue to read different Holocaust stories and different survivor’s statements of fact…as I have for over half-a-century… almost endlessly… and do my best to pass on the horrors… to as many generations as I possibly can. So the most important Jewish mantra from my lifetime and beyond… “NEVER-AGAIN!†will forever and always… be a life sustaining pledge! Because of this personal dedication… I can wholeheartedly state that what is told in this book is not new… untold revelations. But what the author(s) have done so professionally… and intelligently… is the melding… of multiple major Nazi CRIMINAL war survivors… who fled the world’s authorities… and were eventually tracked down by self-proclaimed “Nazi-Huntersâ€â€¦ and the State of Israel… they are all tracked… followed… and discussed in this one book… where most books in the past… are not as all encompassing. Of course there is not as much individual detail in this one book as there are in previous individual books… on the less than animal excrement… with names like Eichmann… Mengele… Barbie… Bormann… and others.
What O’Reilly and co-author Dugard… have done… is almost common sense… if you realize that O’Reilly used to be a teacher. I feel the way this book is laid out… is in a perfect format… for high school students (in addition of course to adults)… who may just be having their eyes opened as to the actual scale and depravity of the entire sick non-human Nazi deranged debauchery known as THE HOLOCAUST! It would be impossible to write an “any- age-version†expose’ of The Holocaust without some stomach turning examples… and for any full-fledged adult… they should be educated with no sick detail redacted… for the very good reason… that every person on earth should know… how vile it was… so “NEVER-AGAIN†would be the result. But this book has purposely restrained itself… I believe… for the greater goal… of making this book be able to target a younger entry level… to start a full education process at a younger age… a little easier.
The author’s should be very proud of the way they were able to tell such an awful… must-be-told… story… in such an educational… and easy to read format."

- Friends of mine know me to be a left-of-center democrat. Definitely not a reliable conservative or republican voter. Thus, they might be surprised at my response to this invaluable educational resource that NEEDS to be used widespread in our educational system.
Just a month ago, Bob Woodward’s book on Trump was released despite a furious Presidential uproar. Now, Bill O’Reilly’s book, released two days ago, focuses attention on the hunt for war criminals following the end of World War 2. Mind you, I, and most of my generation witnessed aspects of the events portrayed in this book, either up close, or from afar. Still, it is an invaluable reminder of what happened after the brutal murders of so many innocent Jewish people and other people due to racial, ethnic and religious hatred and persecution.
I’ve not yet read other O’Reilly books, but will make a point of doing so in the future. Not because I am a political devotee, but because I appreciate his sense of history and style of presentation. I think I would have loved being a student of his, despite our political differences.
BLUSH FACTOR I came across no profanities. Further, this is a terrific book to read aloud in your prayer group, or to (or with) your children and your elders.
Excerpt
‘…In a classic courtroom Q and A, James Heath destroys the SS killer
OHLENDORF The Jews were collected at one place; and from there they were later transported to the place of execution, which was, as a rule, an antitank ditch or a natural excavation. The executions were carried out in a military manner, by firing squads under command.
PROSECUTOR In what way were they transported to the place of execution?
OHLENDORF They were transported to the place of execution in trucks, always only as many as could be executed immediately. In this way it was attempted to keep the span of time from the moment in which the victims knew what was about to happen to them until the time of their actual execution as short as possible.
PROSECUTOR Was that your idea?
OHLENDORF Yes.
PROSECUTOR And after they were shot what was done with the bodies?
OHLENDORF The bodies were buried in the antitank ditch or excavation.
PROSECUTOR What determination, if any, was made as to whether the persons were actually dead?
OHLENDORF The unit leaders or the firing-squad commanders had orders to see to this and, if need be, finish them off themselves.
PROSECUTOR And who would do that?
OHLENDORF Either the unit leader himself or somebody designated by him.
PROSECUTOR In what positions were the victims shot?
OHLENDORF Standing or kneeling.
PROSECUTOR NIKTCHENKO In your testimony you said that the Einsatz group had the object of annihilating the Jews and the commissars, is that correct?
OHLENDORF Yes.
PROSECUTOR And in what category did you consider the children? For what reasons were the children massacred?
OHLENDORF The order was that the Jewish population should be totally exterminated.
PROSECUTOR Including the children?
OHLENDORF Yes.
Benny Ferencz listens to the responses, baffled by Ohlendorf’s arrogance. “He told his men never to use infants for target practice nor smash their heads against a tree. He ordered his men to allow the mother to hold her infant to her breast and to aim for her heart. That would avoid screaming and would allow the shooter to kill both mother and infant with one bullet. It saved ammunition.
“Ohlendorf said he refused to use the gas vans that were assigned to his companies. He found that when the mobile killing vehicles arrived at their destination, where they were supposed to dump their asphyxiated human cargo into a waiting ditch, some of the captives were still alive and had to be unloaded by hand. His troops had to dig out the vomit and excrement—and that was very hard on his men.â€
Most unforgettable among Ohlendorf’s offensive comments was that each murder was an act of self-defense.

BOTTOM LINE
How thorough and how powerful is this work by O’Reilly? Because of him, I spent another $8.99 to get a book mention by him Paul Manning’s “Martin Bormann Nazi in Exile.†Regardless of your political sentiment, you NEED to read Bill O’Reilly’s “Killing the SS.†Better yet, add the Audible edition to your library. I wish the publisher would make the book and its Audible edition available to middle schools across the country for the maximum possible impact of this historical work upon our youth.
Five stars out of five.
