Beskrivelse
More than six million Jews were deliberately murdered during the WWII by the German Nazis.
Long before the death camps, the Nazis embarked on a systematic campaign of oppression, discrimination and dehumanization of Jews in Germany.
The Jews had to live in constant fear after Hitler rose to power, facing book burnings that sought to erase their intellectual contributions from history.
Through rigorous laws, Jews were increasingly pushed out of society - banned from many professions, their businesses boycotted, and their civil rights stripped away. Unemployment soared as the German economy collapsed, and Jews became convenient scapegoats.
It was against this backdrop of escalating marginalization and anti-Semitism that Auschwitz was built.
In gripping detail, this unforgettable book written by historian Robert Kennedy takes readers inside the infamous Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz.
The author provides a devastating account and the daily horrors the survivors witnessed-the brutal selections by the notorious "Angel of Death" Dr. Josef Mengele, the starving and freezing prisoners, the smell of burning flesh that lingered in the air.
Above all, this book pays tribute to the survivors who endured unspeakable cruelty yet still found the will to live on.
A devastating glimpse into history that feels chillingly relevant even today, this book honors the victims of the Holocaust by ensuring their stories are never forgotten.
It is a searing testimony that will move even the hardest of hearts.
