David Irving was born on March 24th, 1938 in England. With him being born in 38' he was alive during WWII and it seemed to give him an interest to study it when he got older. As time flew by he began to write analytical papers on the militaries and Nazi Germany.
In one of his first published book which is called, Hilters War 1977. This is the book that has made David Irving the Holocaust denier to which he is today. In his book which was read by Richard J. Evans and Deborah Lippstadt. He talks about the whole war of WWII and he begins to explain that Hitler did not know anything about the Holocaust and that he was a prestige leader. This book would later on would come back and hurt him in the long run.
After the libel suit there was a lot of problems with Irving's personal including him being arrested and banned from countries such as Austria, New Zealand, and also the UK. Many countries knew about his work and punished him for his beliefs and everything he wrote has come back to hurt his reputation and life.
