999: The Extraordinary Young Women of the First Official Jewish Transport to Auschwitz

The story of nearly a thousand young unmarried Jewish women, who boarded a train in Poprad, Slovakia, in March of 1942. Filled with a sense of national pride, they left their parents' homes wearing their best clothes, believing they were going to work in a government factory. Instead, they were sent to Auschwitz, sold by their government to the Nazis as slave labor. Few would survive. 16 pages of photos.
