Front cover detached, earlier pages bear some edge wear.

Captions are printed in Polish, Russian, English, French, Hebrew and Yiddish and with more extensive explanatory notes to the photographs in the appendix in Polish and English. Extraordinary images, frighteningly graphic and compiled immediately at the end of the Second World War. An extremely important addition to any archive or library dealing with the Holocaust.
