First English edition

Belzec, Sobibor, Treblinka: the Operation Reinhard Death Camps is a 1987 book by Israeli historian Yitzhak Arad which discusses Operation Reinhard and the extermination camps of Belzec, Sobibor, and Treblinka.[1][2] It was published in Hebrew by Yad Vashem,[3] and in English by Indiana University Press.[4] In contrast to Raul Hilberg, Arad paid more attention to the Jewish response to persecution.[5]

In 1999, Michael Berkowitz noted that "this book no longer represents the cutting edge of scholarship".[6] As recently as 2019, the book is still being used as the basis of research on the Holocaust.[7]
