summary

Born in Lvov, Filip Friedman (1901-60), was a Jewish historian who survived the Holocaust in hiding. Immediately after the war was over, he was appointed head of Poland’s Central Jewish Historical Commission, a position through which he oversaw the publication of several pioneering studies about Nazi war crimes. This essay is one of the very earliest and concerns the Auschwitz extermination camp.
