註釋

This is the compelling and true story of a Polish family from which six members were imprisoned, tortured or executed by either the German or Russian occupiers, and the seventh who survived Auschwitz and Flossenbürg concentrations camps and was saved by the American Army during the infamous Death March at the end of the war. The story stretches from Auschwitz-Birkenau, France, England, Flossenbürg, to the Katyń forest massacres, ordered by Stalin.Reason for the persecution and vengeance? Active resistance in the Polish Underground Army, organized and successfully carried out by their elder brother, a lawyer, who did escape harm, but remained a suspect by the communist government for a decade after the war.All events are factual, documented with witnesses, letters, photographs, and tiny notes smuggled out of desperate situations. The unique tiny notes, many of which are reproduced, are of special interest.
