Riassunto

Steven Spielberg's Shoah foundation presents an important historical testament documenting the fate of the Hungarian Jews in the last frenzied months of Hitler's 'Final Solution'.

This book is published to coincide with the cinematic release of a documentary film that follows 5 survivors of the Holocaust in Hungary in 1944. Each survivor describes life before the war; the swift and barbarous execution of Hitler's policies from March 1944; their experiences in Auschwitz, Buchenwald and Dachau; and follows them on their return to the camps 50 years later to discover the fates of their immediate families.

The Hungarian Holocaust was 1 of the Greatest tragedies of World War II: The murder of 435,000 Hungarian Jews in the final monthsof the war, when German power was on the wane. The last days highlights some of the fortunate survivors, in a memorial to those who did not survive.
