(P724)?Digest:	The USHMM Encyclopedia of Camps and Ghettos, 1933-1945 provides authoritative documentation of camps, ghettos, and other persecutory sites operated by the Nazi regime and its allies in a vast network that extended across the European continent and reached as far as the Soviet Union and North Africa. It is the most comprehensive resource on the Nazi camp universe, detailing the complexities of the camps and their impact on millions of inmates. The series comprises 7 volumes that will document approximately 6,000 sites in narrative format. Each volume provides foundational information on a particular subset of camps organized according to type, subordination, or distinct inmate population. Entries also describe the camps' evolution and their links to other sites to illuminate the persecutory system as a whole. Photographs, charts, and maps supplement the text. A forthcoming database will contain data about an estimated additional 38,000 forced labor camps.
