Tells the history of the notorious Nazi institution. This book reveals how Auschwitz evolved from a concentration camp for Polish political prisoners into the site of the largest mass murder in history - part death camp, part concentration camp, where around a million Jews were killed.

"'Thank God...that occasionally books of the stature of Laurence Rees's superb 'Auschwitz' are published' - Andrew Roberts, Evening Standard 'excellent' Boyd Tonkin, Independent '...a key to understanding man's inhumanity to man.' Ian Thomson, Guardian 'Well-written...with striking testimonies from bystanders, perpetrators and victims... The interviews with SS men, and sundry European Fascists, are genuinely revealing, and must have been exceptionally difficult to negotiate.' Michael Burleigh, Daily Telegraph 'Devastating... Rees's research is impeccable and intrepid... Ultimately he does at the gut level what Hannah Arendt achieved some 40 years ago at the level of philosophy: he forces the reader to shift the Holocaust out of the realm of nightmare or Gothic horror and acknowledge it as something all too human... Scrupulous and honest, this book is utterly without illusions.' David Von Drehle, Washington Post, USA 'This magnificent book... exciting and disturbing at the same time.' Rafael Nunez Florencio, El Mundo, Spain 'I believe that Rees's book will be included in the canon of fundamental works shaping our knowledge about the Holocaust.' Wladyslaw Bartoszewski, former Polish Foreign Minister and one-time inmate of Auschwitz."
