Millions of German survivors applauded and turned the book into an international bestseller, while furious academics, the American and French governments and some journalists attacked Bacque for exaggeration. None however could explain how many prisoners died, or why. In 1992, Bacque flew to Moscow to visit the newly-opened KGB archives, where he found documented new proof that almost one million Germans died in Western prison camps"--Page 4 of cover
