The book of Alfred Kantor.

Description:

In his book, **The Book of Alfred Kantor**, there are the 127 sketches and paintings most of which he had made while in the three concentration camps he was imprisoned in. The art in the book depicts the history Kantor witnessed like the infamous chief physician, *Josef Mengele* in his Nazi Uniform. Others in the book were re-creations since not all art was encouraged in the concentration camps. It was first published in 1971 by McGraw-Hill and the second edition was published in 1987 by Schocken Books. ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Kantor))
