Chris Webb is a public historian in the true meaning of the word. He shares his enormous knowledge with everyone, he publishes a lot: not in an ivory tower but as someone who really knows what people want to know. His book was shaped by vast studies he undertook, by field trips, by interviews with survivors and students. This book will be a much valued addition to the knowledge about one of the most horrific crimes in the history of humankind.--Robert Parzer, cofounder of the EU project Gedenkort-T4.eu The book will be useful for both those coming to the Holocaust for the first time and those seasoned researchers like myself, who have read many books on Auschwitz. Although the number of existing published works on Auschwitz is vast, this book on the Auschwitz Concentration Camp is a very worthy addition to the bibliography of one of the most important camps established by the Nazis.--Cameron Munro, cofounder of Tiergartenstrasse4Association e.V.
