Adolf Eichmann was a simple salesman until the Nazi movement gave him a chance at what he thought to be greater things. Although he never committed an act of violence, nor operated a death camp, Eichmann's name became forever linked with the transportation of millions of Jews to their deaths. Tom Streissguth explores the life of Adolf Eichmann from his childhood in Austria and his career in the SS to his dramatic capture and trial.
