From the inside cover:

"Queen's Bench Courtroom Number Seven --a seething legal battleground for contest between the famous novelist and a doctor who claims he has been libeled...

"Author Abraham Cady first became aware of Jadwiga Concentration Camp when he learned that it was the place where his family was exterminated. This terrible revelation gave impetus to his decision to write a great book that would shake the consciousness of the human race. And with the publication of The Holocaust his goal was accomplished.

"Eminent surgeon Sir Adam Kelno -- knighted by the Crown for his contributions to medicine -- had been mentioned in The Holocaust as one of Jadwiga's most sadistic inmate/doctors, working directly under an SS Colonel. Kelno denies this -- and plans to stand and fight to prove once and for all that Cady is a liar.

"Is there truth to Abraham Cady's allegations? Was Adam Kelno a madman at Jadwiga -- capable of performing atrocities? Or was Adam Kelno simply an ordinary man caught in an insane situation?"

This is Leon Uris’ best book -- far better then Exodus, in my opinion.

Abraham Cady learns of his Jewish heritage from his father -- that most of his family had been exterminated at the Jadwiga concentration camp. After becoming immersed in his faith after his father's death, Cady decides to write a book called The Holocaust. In it, he accuses a surgeon, Dr. Adam Kelno, as being one of the doctors at the Jadwiga camp that did experiments on other human beings and was a war criminal. Dr. Kelno finds out about the book, reads it, and decides to sue Cady in court and prove that Cady is a liar. It is a book of deep feeling and gripping suspense; one that deals with the Holocaust and the repercussions that happened so many years later after families found out what actually happened to their relatives. It's a brilliant book -- highly recommended.
