Books, Manuscripts
During World War II, Jan Karski disguised himself as a guard to infiltrate a Nazi death camp. Travelling across occupied Europe to England, with his eye-witness report smuggled on microfilm in the handle of a razor, he became the first man to tell the Allies about the Holocaust - only to be ignored. This is his remarkable story.
