The pictures, apparently overlooked by the Allies, were routinely filed in government archives and not examined until 1979. First-hand reports on the horrors of the death camps came to the West by 1944 in the person of two escaped Auschwitz prisoners. Their testimonies, and those of subsequent escapees, were either ignored or dismissed. This book explains the reasons why.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military History Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67668508803371,"sku":"13743","price":8.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/1289\/5019\/files\/auschwitz-and-the-allies-by-martin-gilbert-1981-first-edition-hardback_13743_main_original.jpg?v=1791232556","url":"https:\/\/militaryhistorybooks.com\/products\/auschwitz-and-the-allies-by-martin-gilbert-1981-first-edition-hardback","provider":"Military History Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
