His has been a voice for those who did not survive. Hella Pick, a writer with The Guardian of London, tells Wiesenthal's personal story, which includes his experience as a prisoner at the Janowska concentration camp in Poland, an experience which inspired his mission to make the world remember. In Auschwitz in 1994 he explained, "My whole life's meaning is to ensure that the murderers of tomorrow--who may not even be born yet--must know that they will have no peace." Product Description: Simon Wiesenthal survived thirteen concentration camps and has since spent more than fifty years searching for Nazi war criminals and bringing them to trial. This comprehensive and objective biography chronicles Wiesenthal's early life and survival in the camps, recounts in gripping detail each of his major Nazi hunts, and evenhandedly examines the conflicting reputations--as both hero and egomaniacal liar--of this controversial and enigmatic public figure.
