Abstract:
"If Auschwitz is the central icon and memorial site of the Shoah, the death camps of Treblinka, Belzec and Sobibor - also located in Poland - remain in the shadows. The sites are neglected and the history little known. Yet this is where the Germans killed most of Europe's largest Jewish community, the Polish Jews, as well as others. Here, as opposed to Auschwitz, people were not imprisoned for long periods or exploited as labourers: they were killed as quickly and 'efficiently' as possible. This study by a Polish 'new generation' historian adds significantly to our knowledge of how the death machine functioned."--Jacket.
