Inside the Concentration Camps: Eyewitness Accounts of Life in Hitler's Death Camps
Aroneanu, a Romanian who drew up the tables of atrocities for the Nuremburg trials, compiled these accounts told by men and women survivors of concentration camps immediately after World War II. Translated by Whissen (Wright State Univ.), this oral history is organized chronologically by camp experience from deportation to liberation. Topics include internment, camp regulations, life in the camps (e.g., labor, sanitary conditions), medical experiences, execution, and the number of dead. The book also includes a list of camps, command posts, and prisons that were used as places of incarceration. The reader will gain from this compilation a vivid and horrifying sense of what life was like in a concentration camp. Recommended for World War II collections.?Mary F.
