The Anatomy of Hell

[Mark Kohut]

As Kai implies, this is a CLASSIC. If one needs/wants to read about
the horrors of the concentration camps,
this is THE ONE, I tried to say aphoristically and if it is the ONLY
one that one reads because the subject
might be too tough to keep reading about....Kogon's perspective will
stay with one forever.
