Synopsis
A curious twist of fate brought about a dramatic confrontation in Cell Block XI of Warsaw's Mokotów prison. From March 2 to November 11, 1949, Kazimierz Moczarski, an ex-Polish Home Army officer, was confined in the same cell with SS Police General Jurgen Stroop, the notorious liquidator of the Warsaw Ghetto. This book is the result of the 255 days the German executioner and one of his intended victims shared in that cramped prison setting. Through conversations with his Polish cell mate, Stroop shows us with a chilling portrait of the making of a Nazi mind, providing fresh and compelling insight into World War II history.

Near Fine hardcover showing only light signs of shelving/handling in a Very Good dust jacket with small chips to the crown, one one-inch tear, rubbing to the extremities, and light shelf wear; overall, a nice copy. All dust jackets are protected by a clear mylar cover. BOOKS SHIP THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY, WRAPPED IN PADDING, IN A BOX. Kazimierz Moczarski, a dissident journalist and ex-Polish Home Army officer, was incarcerated in Poland in 1949 as an alleged enemy of the state, anti-communist, and accused of being a Nazi. He was confined for 255 days in the same cell with SS Police General Jurgen Stroop, the liquidator of the Warsaw Ghetto. This book is the result of the conversations the German executioner and one of his intended victims shared in that cramped prison setting. The book is composed of 26 chapters each with a separate title and structured like a traditional biography beginning with the description of their first meeting in prison, and then continuing in chronological order from Stroop's birth until his execution, along the way providing us with a portrait of the making of a Nazi mind. Edited by Mariana Fitzpatrick. 282 pages; 8 pages of b&w photos; 6 x 9.25 inches. Seller Inventory # 25717
