The Auschwitz Photographer

Maurizio Onnis & Luca Crippa PENGUIN RANDOM HOUSE

Painstakingly recreated from archives and interviews, this book is based on the poignant true story of prisoner 3444 – Auschwitz photographer Wilhelm Brasse, whose images exposed the atrocities of the Holocaust to the world. When the camp was liberated by Soviet troops, the Polish political prisoner refused to destroy his photographs, which later helped convict Nazis at the Nuremberg Trials. An extraordinary story of horror, hope and courage.
