Auschwitz: 1270 To The Present.

DWORK, DEBORAH & VAN PELT, ROBERT JAN.

5892X1 First Edition. Norton, NY: 1996. 443 pages. Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. Elucidates how the prewar ordinary town of Auschwitz became Germany's most lethal killing site step by step and in stages: a transformation wrought by human beings, mostly German and mostly male. Using the architectural plans for the camp that the Germans, in their haste, forgot to destroy, as well as the blueprints and papers in the municipal, provincial, and federal archives, the authors show that the town of Auschwitz and the camp of that name were the centerpiece of Himmler's ambitious project ro recover the German legacy of the Teutonic Knights and Frederick the Great in Nazi-ruled Poland. Includes an Index. ISBN: 0393039331 $21.55USD
