About this Item
At 22 years of age, and a young Czech artist, Kantor began his imprisonment in three Nazi concentration camps: Terezin, Auschwitz and Schwarzheide. He determined that he would not let those horrible times escape his artist's brush. This wonderful book is the record he kept: some 160 drawings, drawn in the two months following his liberation. He said, "It was not so much that I wanted to draw my own story, but rather to capture this extraordinary place, so that I could show the world something of it IF and WHEN I was ever free." This is a very moving account. After his release, Kantor got to the US and served in the US Army. Then he lived with his wife in Yarmouth, Maine. Seller Inventory # 002428
