Overview

H.H. LAUGHLIN: American Scientist. American Progressive. Nazi Collaborator.

(Large Print - Deluxe Edition)
H.H. Laughlin was crucial for the Nazi's crusade to breed a "master race." This American positioned himself to have a significant effect on the world's population. During his career Laughlin:

• Wrote the "Model Eugenical Law" copied by the Nazis to draft the Nuremberg racial decrees.
• Was appointed as an "expert" witness for the U.S. Congress when the 1924 Immigration Restriction Act was passed. This Act would prevent Jewish refugees from reaching the safety of U.S. shores during The Holocaust.
• Provided the "scientific" basis for the 1927 Supreme Court case that made "eugenic sterilization" legal in the United States.
• Defended Hitler's Nuremberg racial decrees as "scientifically" sound before the International press.
• Created the political organization that ensured eugenics and scientific racism would survive the negative taint of The Holocaust.

H.H. Laughlin was given an honorary degree from Heidelberg University by Hitler's government, specifically for these accomplishments. Yet, no one has ever written a book on Laughlin.
