The Polish concentration camp in Jaworzno was one of the most brutal measures against the Ukrainian population taken by the Polish authorities during the Vistula Deportation Camp (28.04.1947-31.07.1947). For almost two years, 3,873 Ukrainians were punished in the camp, sent there without indictments or court orders. Among the prisoners were over 800 women and several dozen children under the age of 14. At least 160 prisoners died of torture, starvation and exhausting labour in the camp.
The book includes 38 memoirs of former prisoners of the Jaworzno concentration camp - women, men, children, priests, and farmers. They came to the camp from all the lands of Zakerzonia - Lemkivshchyna, Kholmshchyna, Nadsyannya, Boikivshchyna, and Podlasie. Their memories reveal all the horrors that these innocent people went through, thrown by the Polish post-war authorities behind the barbed wire of a concentration camp that had been a branch of the notorious Auschwitz-Birkenau camp only two years before.
