About This Item
2017 hardcover as pictured. This is the story of a forgotten hero which reveals the tremendous difference in memorial cultures between societies in the West and societies in the former Communist world. In 1943, Aleksandr "Sasha" Pechersky led a mass escape of inmates from Sobibor, a Nazi death camp in Poland. Despite leading the only successful prisoner revolt at a World War II death camp, Pechersky never received the public recognition he deserved in his home country of Russia. Binding is firm. Boards are clean with light edge wear. The plastic veneer is delaminating in places along spine and hinges of the pre-printed cover. Endpapers and text apear clean and unmarked. No dust jacket.
