Resumen del Editor
The Man Who Broke into Auschwitz is the extraordinary true story of a British soldier who marched willingly into Buna-Monowitz, the concentration camp known as Auschwitz III. In the summer of 1944, Denis Avey was being held in a POW labour camp, E715, near Auschwitz III. He had heard of the brutality meted out to the prisoners there, and he was determined to witness what he could. He hatched a plan to swap places with a Jewish inmate and smuggled himself into his sector of the camp.
He spent the night there on two occasions and experienced at first-hand the cruelty of a place where slave workers had been sentenced to death through labour. Astonishingly, he survived to witness the aftermath of the Death March in which thousands of prisoners were murdered by the Nazis as the Soviet Army advanced. After his own long trek right across central Europe he was repatriated to Britain.
For decades he couldn't bring himself to revisit the past that haunted his dreams, but now Denis Avey feels able to tell the full story - a tale as gripping as it is moving - which offers us a unique insight into the mind of an ordinary man whose moral and physical courage are almost beyond belief.

Historia
In 1528, a mission set out from Spain to colonize Florida. But the expedition went horribly wrong: Delayed by a hurricane, knocked off course by a colossal error of navigation, and ultimately doomed by a disastrous decision to separate the men from their ships, the mission quickly became a desperate journey of survival. Of the 300 men who had embarked on the journey, only four survived - three Spaniards and an African slave.

Historia
This is an easily digestible argument about what rights we have, what rights Republicans are trying to take away, and how to stop them. Mystal explains how to protect the rights of women and people of color instead of cowering to the absolutism of gun owners and bigots. He explains the legal way to stop everything from police brutality to political gerrymandering, just by changing a few judges and justices. He strips out all of the fancy jargon conservatives like to hide behind and lays bare the truth of their project to keep America forever tethered to its slaveholding past.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Historia
In 1177 B.C., marauding groups known only as the "Sea Peoples" invaded Egypt. The pharaoh’s army and navy managed to defeat them, but the victory so weakened Egypt that it soon slid into decline, as did most of the surrounding civilizations. After centuries of brilliance, the civilized world of the Bronze Age came to an abrupt and cataclysmic end. Kingdoms fell like dominoes over the course of just a few decades. No more Minoans or Mycenaeans. No more Trojans, Hittites, or Babylonians.

Historia
In February 1959, a group of nine experienced hikers in the Russian Ural Mountains died mysteriously on an elevation known as Dead Mountain. Eerie aspects of the incident—unexplained violent injuries, signs that they cut open and fled the tent without proper clothing or shoes, a strange final photograph taken by one of the hikers, and elevated levels of radiation found on some of their clothes—have led to decades of speculation over what really happened.

Eye Openeing
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
For all the WWII movies, and History Channel programmes, this audio book was an eye opener to the Actual Horrors experienced by One Denis Avey, a British POW. Very interesting, I could not stop listening.
What did you like best about this story?
A Journey of a man through the war. Not too much in depth detail day by day, but snippets of off the critical pieces over those years with just the right amount of detail as lived through and experienced by Avey.
What does Sean Barrett bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Awesome Narrator... Calm, soulful, meaningful delivery.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Horrified at the atrocities of the Concentration Camps.
Any additional comments?

Well worth listening to
What did you love best about The Man Who Broke into Auschwitz?
Fascinating account. I enjoyed the additional autobiographical detail and it was easy to empathize with the author. Well written and authentically narrated. The story is so astonishing that at times I found myself wondering if it could be true but the details seemed sufficiently plausible and I was absorbed from beginning to end.
What other book might you compare The Man Who Broke into Auschwitz to and why?
None
Have you listened to any of Sean Barrett’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Same as title
Any additional comments?
No

Surprisingly, a Gem
I was hesitant at first to read a story about the Holocaust by a person who was not one of the victims. He may have been brave to sneak into a death camp, but he was an observer and I was doubtful he would have much of significance to add to what others have told. Would his story just be a sort of "me too" effort to steal some of the thunder from the actual survivors? The book sat on my wishlist for a long time before I purchased it.
Even then, I found it hard to plod through much of the book as he retold the story of his experiences as a British soldier in WWII. It seemed that perhaps the title was just "click bait", as it were, although that is a bit unfair: life as a soldier was far from easy.
But if you, too, wonder, keep plowing through. There is something incredibly beautiful and human in this story of a man who, after suffering himself, reached out to help another, even though it seemed practically pointless.
He tells his story with a subtle humility. His story is told from the vantage point yes, of an observer, but yes, someone who was still part of the whole whirlwind which was the war. Avey lived a life with many ups and downs; he is not a "bigger than life" hero. He is an average person who somehow was able to score a point for our better natures.

SPELLBINDING, COULDNT PUT IT DOWN
Would you try another book from Denis Avey and Rob Broomby and/or Sean Barrett?
YES
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Man Who Broke into Auschwitz?
THE EXCHANGE AND BOLDNESS TO CONFRONT AN SS SOLDIER
What does Sean Barrett bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
ONE FEELS HE IS TALKING DIRECTLY TO YOU.
Any additional comments?
ANYONE INTERESTED IN THE FACTS OF WW2 HISTORY SHOULD READ THIS STORY. IT IS BOTH HEART BREAKING AND UPLIFTING AND LEAVES ONE WITH A SENSE OF PRIDE THAT THERE WERE THOSE WHO WERE PREPARED TO LOSE EVERYTHING IN ORDER TO HELP ANOTHER HUMAN BEING IN AN EXTREMELY BAD SITUATION. IT IS HARROWING AND INFORMATIVE AND I COULD'NT PUT IT DOWN. I THINK IT IS A MUST READ!

Worthwhile read
Compelling. The author Avey embarked on a difficult journey as a soldier, but I read it for the light at the end of the tunnel. Recommended read if you’re looking for some hope in life.
