Product Description

The Saboteur of Auschwitz: A British POW's Eyewitness Account by Colin Rushton — a gripping, true wartime memoir for readers who value courage, historical truth, and first-hand testimony. This BRAND NEW paperback edition (Format: Paperback, ISBN: 9781787833296) brings to life one soldier’s fight against brutality inside the camp known as Auschwitz, offering compelling reading for history buffs, teachers, parents, and anyone seeking powerful survivor stories. In 1942 young British soldier Arthur Dodd was taken prisoner by the German Army and transported to Oswiecim in Polish Upper Silesia — the place the Nazis renamed Auschwitz. In The Saboteur of Auschwitz, Colin Rushton recounts how Dodd endured forced labor, starvation, and savage beatings yet refused to surrender to despair. Determined to resist, Dodd sabotaged Nazi industrial work, risked his life to ease the suffering of Jewish prisoners, and supported a partisan group planning a mass break-out. This eyewitness account places readers at the heart of resistance within one of history’s darkest settings. About the book and why it matters. This paperback edition is part of a growing body of firsthand World War II testimony that preserves memory and teaches future generations. Rushton — an established author and published poet whose work has appeared internationally — brings credibility and compassion to Arthur Dodd’s story. He previously authored Spectator in Hell: A British Soldier's Story of Imprisonment in Auschwitz, also published by Pelican, demonstrating a sustained commitment to documenting survivors’ voices.
