Colin Rushton's The Saboteur of Auschwitz tells the true story of British POW Arthur Dodd, while Laurence Rees' Auschwitz: The Nazis & The 'Final Solution' delivers the definitive account of the camp's rise as the epicentre of Nazi genocide. Together they combine survivor testimony with rigorous analysis for WWII history readers and students. About the Books: The Saboteur of Auschwitz recounts the true story of Arthur Dodd, a young British soldier captured in 1942 and transported to Oswiecim, where the Germans built the camp the world would come to know as Auschwitz. Forced into hard labour, starved, and brutally beaten, Dodd sabotaged Nazi industrial work, risked his life to ease the suffering of Jewish prisoners, and aided a partisan group planning a mass breakout. Colin Rushton's account sheds new light on the camp's operations and tells the largely unknown story of the military POWs held there, in the vein of The Tattooist of Auschwitz. Auschwitz: The Nazis & The 'Final Solution' broadens the lens. Acclaimed historian Laurence Rees traces how Auschwitz evolved from a camp for Polish political prisoners into the site of the largest mass murder in history, where around a million Jews were killed. Drawing on newly opened Russian archives and interviews with former SS perpetrators, Rees examines the mentality of key Nazi decision-makers and uncovers disturbing facts about corruption within the camp. Winner of a British Book Award and described as the world's bestselling history of the camp, it remains a landmark work. Together, these paperbacks offer a compact yet multi-dimensional view of the Holocaust. Key Benefits: Two acclaimed WWII history titles in one paperback set. Combines a first-hand POW survivor account with definitive historical analysis. Written by bestselling historian and broadcaster Laurence Rees. Features rare testimony from former SS perpetrators. Accessible, classroom-ready paperbacks for students and general readers. A thoughtful gift for history enthusiasts and WWII researchers.
