| Summary: | Auschwitz is the epitome of Nazi evil; the largest and most notorious of the German extermination camps. At least 3 million human beings were killed there during the four years and nine months it existed-- most stripped of all they had and herded naked into its four gas chambers to die in agony. The remainder worked as slave labor until they died of starvation or exhaustion. The Nazis were confident they could keep their dark secret from the world. But a few brave men and women were determined to escape and expose the dreadful crimes that were being committed. |
