Responsible for the death and mutilation of thousands of prisoners at Auschwitz. Mengele vanished into South America af- ter World War II, where he remained free for more than three decades. How did he escape from the Allies? And how did he elude his pursuers? Granted exclusive and unrestricted access to the Mengele family papers and diaries, Posner and Ware have sifted through more than 5,000 pages of Mengele's writings to construct this ex- traordinary record of his life—from his childhood in Germany to the horrors of Auschwitz to his years in exile. Among their headline-making revelations: • Conclusive proof that Mengele was aided by an extensive network of people who supplied him with passports, shelter, money, and diverted his pursuers. • Unprecedented new insights into Mengele's mind and character. (continued on back flap) (continued from front flap) • Proof that Mengele was captured and held for two months under his own name by the U.S. Army. • Substantial evidence that West Germany and Israel could have captured Mengele on two separate occasions and failed to do so. In this masterful biography, the infamous, elusive Mengele has at last been captured. Gerald L. Posner, recognized as a leading authority on Josef Mengele, is a partner in the New York City law firm of Posner and Ferrara. He has been studying Mengele for five years, traveling to Europe and South America to collect more than 25,000 documents. John Ware is a London-based TV producer for the current affairs documentary program World in Action made by Britain's Granada Television. His documentary 'The Hunt for Dr. Mengele" was aired on the Independent Television Network as well as on 60 Minutes in this country. jacket design by Judith K.
