Currently at the 2025 Gerstein Holocaust Education Travel Fund presentations—a really awesome thing that we have at Butler, our students have access too, and opportunities to learn, study, and advance knowledge of the Holocaust.

Not only did I learn earlier this week that I’d be back at the Indiana Historical Society’s Holiday book fair in December (and yes, Eisenhower & the Holocaust will be on sale) BUT I also signed a contract to write my next book with the IHS as well! I’m very excited about both these developments!

My friend Matt, who is currently doing a fellowship at the USHMM, sent me this. The book has made it where the idea was born! @rabeari.bsky.social @dgb-history.bsky.social @degruyterbrill.bsky.social

A big thank you to Tina for the shout out about my Eisenhower & the Holocaust book. In addition to having great taste in books, she is also an awesome, amazing tour guide!

Someone is currently putting on a carillon concert here on campus and it wonderful and should happen more often.

Last month I spoke to a TOLI workshop about Eisenhower & the Holocaust. In the mail today was a thank you card —signed by all the participants (over 30 educators)! Totally made my day.

Not only is my Eisenhower & the Holocaust book now available to order (via Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and my publisher DeGruyter etc), but Amazon currently has the Kindle version marked down to $20 — which is about $2 below the paperback cost!

Jason Lantzer @histprofdad.bsky.social · Jun 28

The wait is over! You can now get a paperback copy of my book on Eisenhower & the Holocaust wherever you buy/order books!

Very big thank you to my awesome editor @rabeari.bsky.social and publisher @degruyterbrill.bsky.social

It was an honor and a privilege to talk with a TOLI group of educators about Eisenhower & the Holocaust today. They represent 20 states and are learning ways to incorporate Holocaust education into their classrooms…and they had some great questions!

Happy to see Ike made it to Lisbon!

At the Allied Museum, I was honored to give a presentation on Eisenhower & the Holocaust as the guest speaker of the Berlin Historical Association. Special bonus, the students sat with BHA members at the post-talk reception and had great conversations.

Got to speak about Eisenhower & the Holocaust today at Vincennes University. A big thank you to everyone who came out and to those who watched on Zoom.

80 years ago today elements of the 89th Inf. and 4th Armored Div. liberated Ohrdruf. About a week later, Ike visited the camp and the decisions he made changed the course of the war and the peace that followed. In 3 weeks, I’ll be talking about such things at the Eisenhower Presidential Library.
