This volume covers three groups of camps: the early camps established in the first year of Hitler's rule, the major concentration camps with their constellations of sub-camps that operated under the control of the SS-Business Administration Main Office, and youth camps. Overview essays precede entries on individual camps and sub-camps. Each entry provides basic information about the purpose of the site; the prisoners, guards, working and living conditions; and key events in its history. Material drawn from personal testimonies helps convey the character of each site, while source citations for each entry provide a path to additional information"--Publisher's description Notes Online resource; title from electronic title page (JSTOR, viewed August 29, 2019) Association of Jewish Libraries Judaica Reference Award, 2010 Subject Nazi concentration camps -- Europe -- Encyclopedias Jewish ghettos -- Europe, Eastern -- Encyclopedias World War, 1939-1945 -- Concentration camps -- Europe -- Encyclopedias World War, 1939-1945 -- Jews -- Europe -- Encyclopedias HISTORY -- Europe -- Western.
