Query: One of the worst scholarly books ever written

I don't even have to give you my opinion. Goldhagen shows what a biased, vengeful and spiteful person he is with his flawed research and undocumented claims. This book is the reason why you should start checking the footnotes if you didn't before. You cannot take people's research for granted. Example: p. 166 footnote #13. Read that one in the back. He didn't have time to actually calculate how many people were actually perpetrators, he simply believes the number was gigantic! He says that word for word! HA! There are DOZENS of "facts" like this. Other whoppers: p. 339. Goldhagen here actually creates his own German fantasy about how Germans made love next to concentration camps and how disgusting that is, yet it is completely without proof and later turns out to be his own fictional description that he hopes will convince you of how terrible Germans are. I am not even German and I was offended.
