WORLD WAR II - HOLOCAUST
Footnotes
"The first report is based upon the experiences of two young Slovakian Jews who escaped in April, 1944, after spending two years in the Nazi concentration camps at Auschwitz and Birkenau in southwestern Poland", including descriptions of the gas chambers. The second report, entitled "Transport (the Polish Major's Report)" was written by an escapee from Auschwitz. Published by the War Refugee Board, which "is engaged in a desperate effort to save as many as possible of Hitler's intended victims... [and] is making the reports public in the firm conviction that they should be read and understood by all Americans" (Preface).
