Product Description
Product Description
When the Nazis invaded Hungary in 1944, they sent virtually the entire Jewish population to Auschwitz. A Jew and a medical doctor, Dr. Miklos Nyiszli was spared from death for a grimmer fate: to perform scientific research on his fellow inmates under the supervision of the infamous Angel of Death : Dr. Josef Mengele. Nyiszli was named Mengele's personal research pathologist. Miraculously, he survived to give this terrifying and sobering account.

An Eye Opening Reading,
By Stacy "stacy1212@aol.com" (Sylmar, California United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Auschwitz: A Doctor's Eyewitness Account (Paperback)
The things this man saw day after day, what he had to do under the terrible circumstances. Heartwrenching, yet something everyone should know in order for this to never be repeated, ever.It was a well written book, hard to put down. I couldn't even imagine having to live through was he did.

Auschwitz: A Doctor's Eyewitness Account,
By Juliana Ghukasyan (Mountain View, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Auschwitz: A Doctor's Eyewitness Account (Paperback)
An incredibly written book, provides thorough information on life in Auschwitz, very personal. Upon finishing it you will want to read more eyewitness accounts on Holocaust. My recomendations include "From Ashes to Life" and "Rumkowski and the Orphans of Lodz" by Lucille Eichengreen and "Night" by Elie Wiesel. The following books are going to greatly influence you.

A Facinating read,
By
This review is from: Auschwitz: A Doctor's Eyewitness Account (Paperback)
What can be worse than being forced to live, only so you can die. Many doctors that went to Nazi death camps were often kept alive to perform expeiriments, and other gruesome tasks. This story shows the life of a middle aged doctor who was sent to Auschwitz, and was kept alive to do whatever he was told to do. This is a page turner that keeps you asking questions, will he live? Did his family live? Will he survive another day? He was condemned to a fate of such horror that it is unimaginable. What makes this story such a masterpeice of it's genre? Read it and find out!
