A harrowing journal of Official Allied photographs depicting the ‘hell on Earth’ created by the Third Reich. The photographs depict starvation and death in Bergen-Belsen, Buchenwald, Langenstein, Mauthausen, Dachau, and Schwabmünchen. At the time, van de Poll was official photographer for the Royal House of the Netherlands, and van de Poll was joined by numerous official and countless unofficial photographers whose aim was to showcase exactly what the Allied forces had been fighting.
