so auschwitz, for instance. you say it was the only one of the camps that was central to the final solution and that 1.7 million jews died in the camps. most of those who died in the holocaust died outside the camps, you argue. and auschwitz, you have a little bit of a different category from dachau and the other camps that you coffer. >> auschwitz is a good starting point maybe for the discussion. in recent decades auschwitz has become almost synonymous with the holocaust and also with the concentration camp system. and this is what most people associate with the camps and the holocaust now. there are three things i think which are important to say here. one, there is more to the holocaust than auschwitz, which is a point i've tried to make in the book. auschwitz is the single most deadly place in the nazi so-called final solution. there is no other site in german-controlled europe where more jews are murderedded than auschwitz. and yet many more jews are killed else than in auschwitz, in ditches, in forests, i

auschwitz's the single most deadly place there is no other site in german controlled europe and auschwitz but yet most are killed elsewhere with special death camps which operate differently than separately but there's also more to auschwitz it was not said that does up the camp to murder the jews it was set up it was is polish opposition but even when it becomes a death camp and then becomes the major death camp they always have multiple functions medical experiments and so one so there's more to auschwitz them off holocaust and more to the concentration camps in auschwitz. . . as part of this larger story. which try, i hope to to bring home to readers just how dynamic and different the system was. i said before that was not the typical prisoner. there's no typical camp so in 1933 it was a run down munitions factory, we have 100 or 120 of those men that treated fairly humanely. they sleep in the same building, none of them think they are going to be there for very long. in 193939 it's a completely different scene. several thousand prisoners have uniforms and suddenly you have this tear w
