Raul Hilberg

Raul Hilberg (June 2, 1926 – August 4, 2007) was a Jewish Austrian-born American political scientist, historian, and Holocaust researcher. He was widely considered to be the preeminent scholar on the Holocaust. Christopher R. Browning has called him the founding father of Holocaust studies and his three-volume, 1,273-page ''magnum opus'', ''The Destruction of the European Jews'', is regarded as seminal for research into the Nazi Final Solution.
