Sure. We also have hundreds/thousands of books about the the human suffering of the Holocaust. But I'm not about to write a book about how the homeowners that lived near concentration camps struggled with the smells and noise. Or how "Auschwitz Plumbing" had a big PR problem after the war ended and had to pay new registration fees to rebrand. That's not the story that mattered and it is really insensitive to pretend it is.
