Winner of the Jewish Quarterly Wingate Literary Prize and the
Wolfson History Prize In March of 1933, a disused factory
surrounded by barbed wire held 223 prisoners in the town of Dachau.
By the end of 1945, the SS concentration camp system had become an
overwhelming landscape of terror. Twenty-two large camps and over
one thousand satellite camps throughout Germany and Europe were at
the heart of the Nazi campaign of repression and intimidation. The
importance of the camps in terms of Nazi history and our modern
world cannot be questioned. Dr Nikolaus Wachsmann is the first
historian to write a complete history of the camps. Combining the
political and the personal, Wachsmann will examine the organisation
of such an immense genocidal machine, whilst drawing a vivid
picture of life inside the camps for the individual prisoner. The
book gives voice to those typically forgotten in Nazi history: the
'social deviants', criminals and unwanted ethnicities that all
faced the terror of the camps. Wachsmann explores the practice of
institutionalised murder and inmate collaboration with the SS
selectively ignored by many historians. Pulling together a wealth
of in-depth research, official documents, contemporary studies and
the evidence of survivors themselves, KL is a complete but
accessible narrative.
