Chemin de croix en 50 stations : de Compiègne a Gusen II : en passant par Buchenwald, Mauthausen, Gusen I
Holocaust survivor Bernard Aldebert's memoirs and sketches of his experiences on the concentration camp "circuit." At the beginning of the narrative, in January 1944, the author is already an inmate in the Compiègne internment camp, having been arrested in 1943 for a caricature of Hitler. The majority of the work depicts the Mauthausen-Gusen camp complex, known for extermination through labor of the intelligentsia. While at Gusen, Aldebert was put to work on the extremely dangerous job of building the Bergkristall tunnel system. The narrative ends with the liberation of Gusen by the Allies on May 5, 1945. Author's name from head of title page. 112 pages, 2 unnumbered leaves : illustrations ; 28 cm
