Part of a system of concentration camps founded by the Nazi regime, Auschwitz is remembered as one of the deadliest, killing between one- and one-and-a-half million prisoners, 90 percent of whom were Jewish. This necessary edition discusses the political and social factors that enabled the Final Solution, and the evolution of the camps from forced labor prisons to death facilities. Readers will learn about the tactics that some prisoners used to survive, the liberation of Auschwitz, and reckoning with the aftermath of genocide.
