Refreshing change: British publisher getting death threats from… Germans

March 11, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Wait… Polish people can read now?

British publisher Martin Kitson, 42, is living in fear of death threats after his travel guide to Poland listed a notorious Nazi death camp commandant as a local hero.

Londoner Kitson, – who lives in Sopot, Poland – made the printing error in his best selling In Your Pocket guide under a heading for Poznan, occupied by Germany in World War II.

It lists brutal Auschwitz commandant Arthur Liebehenschel under a heading that should have read ‘Local Heroes and Villains.’ (…)

But there was a slip at the printers and it came up as ‘Local Heroes’ and now I’ve been inundated with death threats, accusations that I’m a Nazi sympathiser and even my children have been accused. It’s a nightmare,’ he said.
