Book excerpt: Stutthof near Gdansk, established in 1939 immediately after the German invasion of Poland, was the first concentration camp established outside Germany. It housed Polish academics and dissenters initially but soon enough also Russian prisoners of war and Polish Jews, for whom there was insufficient room in Auschwitz and other extermination centres. Later still it also received Latvian Jews. Stutthof, as a comparatively small and overlooked death camp, has had little written about it in English. This booklet goes some way to rectifying that position
