The first of its kind: More than 300 concise articles, in alphabetical order, covering topics in the history of the largest Nazi German concentration camp and extermination center, Auschwitz-written for a general readership in a concise, accessible style. Photographs, archival documents, and reproductions of art works by prisoner eyewitnesses supplement and enrich the text.
Cywiński, Piotr Setkiewicz and Jacek Lachendro, said about the book: "It was not our aim to describe everything conveyed by the eyewitnesses, nor to present the entirety of the knowledge attained in decades of historical research. 'Auschwitz from A to Z' is intended for everyone interested in learning more about various aspects-standard or little known&-of the history of Auschwitz".
