Aus dem Umschlagtext:
In 1945 Moritz Nachtstern sat down in his Oslo apartment and dictated the story of how he survived the Holocaust. He was one of 771 Jews deported from Norway during the German occupation of 1940 - 45, and one of only 34 who came back. In Auschwitz he endured horrific conditions and came close to death serveral times, before being selected to go to Sachsenhausen concentration camp and the isolated Block 19. Here, under the watchful eye of their SS guard, skilled prisoners worked to produce perfect counterfeit British, and later American, banknotes for their captors.
