Teresa Swiebocka - Auschwitz: A History in Photographs. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1993 -  Glossy illustrated dust jacket with white lettering. 295 pp. Illustrations (some color), maps (some color). ”Auschwitz, where more than a million Jews, Poles, and others were murdered by the Nazis, has come to symbolize the Holocaust, Less well known is that the physical site of Auschwitz -- with its barracks, guard towers, barbed wire fences, gas chambers, and crematoria -- exists today as a museum and a memorial. Through more than 280 documentary photographs from the archives of the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum and reproductions of artistic works by former prisoners, this book records the history of Auschwitz and what it looks like today. It includes photographs taken by the Nazis of the construction and expansion of the camp, of individual prisoners and scenes from daily life.” -from dust jacket.
