註釋Memoirs of a Jew born in 1923 in Leipzig, who was expelled from Germany to Poland, with his parents and two brothers, in October 1938. The family settled in Tarnów, the father's native town. In November 1939, Kalter was taken for forced labor; in April 1940 he was transferred to the Dębica labor camp. In December 1940 he managed to escape, returned to Tarnów, and hid there, but several months later he was captured and sent back to the camp. His mother and elder brother were deported and killed in 1942, his father in 1943. In 1944 Kalter was sent to Auschwitz, and in November joined his younger brother in Monowitz; together they were taken in January 1945 on a death march to Gleiwitz, and a transport to Buchenwald and then Langenstein, where they were liberated. After the war Kalter emigrated to the USA; these memoirs were written during his journey there in summer 1946. Pp. 9-13, 77-81 contain an introduction by Erhard Roy Wiehn, in German and English. Pp. 67-76 present a reaction to the book by James Stuart Brice.
