The Last Jew of Treblinka
Unlike Auschwitz or Birkenau, Treblinka was utterly without pretense. It was built for one purpose alone—extermination. Chil Rajchman was a rare survivor. Though he bore witness to atrocity after atrocity, he somehow lived to tell the world what he had seen. How he found the dress of his little sister abandoned in the woods. How he was forced to extract gold teeth from the corpses. How every night he had to cover the body pits with sand. And how every morning, the blood of thousands still rose to the surface.
In The Last Jew of Treblinka, Rajchman provides the only survivor’s record of this death camp. Originally written in Yiddish in 1945, it shows that, sometimes, the bravest and most painful act of all is to remember.

Unbelievably sad but true

How anyone could do to those people is pure EVIL. Anyone who has the gall to deny this tragic event is also purely EVIL. I couldn't put the book down. Have also passed it on to others to read with instructions to also pass it on. As an RN I help people heal, not die.

Since it has been 60 plus years since the Holocaust think all of the suvivors of the Concentration Camps need to have their stories printed and written down so their expierences will never be forgotten. General Eisenhower had troops take photos and testimony because He realized there would in the future people who would deny the Holocaust happened. We all need these stories to remember so this will never happen again.

This book was very well written and reads quickly. Very good telling of the horrors of Treblinka.

The book was great, but too short. Also, written this simply, it would make a great requisite reading for middle school or high school students; an introduction to the Holocaust.
