The Dressmakers of Auschwitz : The True Story of the Women Who Sewed to Survive
(Large Print)

A powerful chronicle of the women who used their sewing skills to survive the Holocaust, stitching beautiful clothes at an extraordinary fashion workshop created within one of the most notorious WW2 death camps. At the height of the Holocaust twenty-five young inmates of the infamous Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp-mainly Jewish women and girls-were selected to design, cut, and sew fashions for elite Nazi women in a dedicated salon. It was work that they hoped would spare them from the gas chambers.
