Erste Ausgabe der ersten Buchveröffentlichung Wiesenthals, zugleich eines der ersten gedruckten Berichte eines KZ-Überlebenden. Als Häftling im Konzentrationslager Mauthausen arbeitete Wiesenthal auf dem Todesblock - unbemerkt von den Nazi-Schergen - an Skizzen und Zeichnungen, die einem Ziel dienen sollten: die Weltöffentlichkeit nach dem Ende der Naziherrschaft und der Befreiung der Konzentrationslager darüber zu informieren, was sich hinter deren Mauern und dem Stacheldraht zugetragen hat. Wiesenthal brauchte für seine Arbeiten nicht viel mehr als einen Bleistiftstummel und etwas Papier. Bildfragmente aus Nazi-Magazinen, wie sie in Papierkörben zu finden waren, baute er nach dem Krieg als optische Zitate in seine Collagen ein, und auch die Texte zu den Bildern entstanden erst im Zuge der Vorbereitungen zur Veröffentlichung des vorliegenden Buches. Infolge der kleinen Auflage war das Werk bald vergriffen und geriet in Vergessenheit, außerdem waren in der Zeit des beginnenden Kalten Krieges Bücher über Nazi-Greuel nicht weiter gefragt...

The Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi League to Champion Human Rights has opposed Nazism since 1933 when it began the boycott of German goods and services in America. By means of the boycott it is stopping millions of American dollars from going to Germany to be utilized for Nazi world-propaganda, to be converted into armaments for world war. By means of its educational campaign the League is arousing enlightened men and women to the need of defending our ideals. And (sic) institutions of our democratic government. These efforts to destroy Nazism in the United States also serve to aid the German people in their struggle for liberation. There is a section, Warnings vs. Nazism, which has quotes from President Roosevelt, Pope Pius XI, Sir Walter M. Citrine, The Nation, George II. Earle, William E. Borah, Fiorello H. LaGuardia, George W. Norris, George Cardinal Mundelein, Dorothy Thompson, and Dr. Paul Hutchinson about the dangers of Nazism. There is also a quote from Franklin D.

Though FDR was open about his Polio, he also tried to downplay it; this is an unusually public connection of FDR and Polio: FDR requested that the press avoid photographing him walking, maneuvering, or being transferred from his car. The stipulation was accepted by most reporters and photographers but periodically someone would not comply. The Secret Service was assigned to purposely interfere with anyone who tried to snap a photo of FDR in a disabled or weak state (FDR Presidential Library, 2017) . OCLC lists no copies anywhere.
