ThoughtCrime: 09/06/96
Arsonists attack Revisionist Publishers
The offices of a major English publisher of revisionist
materials were badly damaged in an arson attack today. Wilson Publishing
and Historical Review Press, in Uckfield, East Sussex, was discovered in
flames at 4.30am. There were no reported injuries in the blaze which destroyed
the offices on an industrial estate.
A British police spokesman said, "We are investigating the incident at
the moment. The premises were not occupied at the time."
On November 5, 1980, an arson attack destroyed the office, warehouse
and printing plant of Historical Review Press. Damage during that attack
was estimated at 50,000 pounds.
