Met lit. opg.
Warrant of Arrest is the account of the wartime experiences of one of the first prisoners of Auschwitz concentration camp, who later escaped and went on to play an active role in the Krakow resistance movement. It is a valuable historical source on the realities of a Nazi concentration camp, the inhuman slave labour, hunger and terror, the executions as well as the ways in which inmates managed to defend themselves and the resistance organizations in and around the camp. This book is exceptional in the succinct, factual way it treats the years of occupation, neither exaggerating nor glossing things over.
