Nazis on the Run: How Auschwitz's Chief Physician and His Colleagues Escaped Trial After Horrific Human Experiments
14.99 €
Even the prisoners at Auschwitz feared him: Josef Mengele's appearance meant death or torturous experiments. The "Angel of Death" decided the fates of thousands of prisoners, conducted horrific experiments, and after the war became one of the most wanted criminals of the 20th century.
But instead of facing trial, he lived for decades in South America. First openly, among former SS officers protected by the Argentine dictator Perón. Later, on the run, with the support of his family and secret patrons. He was sheltered by those who knew exactly who he was. Among these people was the schoolteacher of Betina Anton, the author of this book.
Why were Nazi hunters never able to catch him? Who helped him hide? And why was the truth revealed only after his death?
In this book, you will learn:
- How did Mengele create a network of comrades and patrons around himself?
- Why was his "second life" possible on another continent? How did those closest to him keep the secret for years, even after his death?
What did the surviving victims of his experiments say—for the first time publicly?
This isn't just the story of one Nazi doctor's escape. It's an investigation into the system of connections, money, and silent complicity that allowed the Third Reich's most brutal criminals to escape justice. Josef Mengele died a free man, and this sentence was passed not on him, but on the entire world that allowed him to go unpunished.
