InAuschwitz, the Allies and Censorship of the Holocaust, Fleming seeks to show that the Allies knew in 1942 what was happening inside the German extermination camps. TheVrba-Wetzler report, written by two escapees from theAuschwitz concentration camp and distributed from April 1944, was not "the watershed moment in Allied knowledge of what was happening to the Jews inside Auschwitz, as is generally believed", writesNorman J. W. Goda in a review of Fleming's book.^[3] TheIsrael Journal of Foreign Affairs described the book as "undoubtedly one of the most important in the study ofthe Holocaust in the last twenty years".^[4]

Fleming shared the Aquila Polonica Prize in 2011^[5] and the Kulczycki Book Prize in 2015.^[6]
