The book gives a very objective account of the atrocities that were a part of the daily routine in Auschwitz. It gives us a fair idea about how the camp was and what was going on in there. While reading the book and reading about the crimes committed against humans, by humans it almost feels unreal, you do tend to ask yourself, can man really act this way?The one point the book keeps on repeating is that the things that happened in Auschwitz needs to be told. Hence giving the real life stories of the survivors of the camp recounting their days in the camp and how they survived it at the very end of the book is not only an interesting touch but also gives a human touch.It is hard to compile all the information about the concentration camps into one book, but this book in its concise chapters gives us a reasonably good idea about it.
