"
Gays
were
seen
as
polluters of
the
"master
race"
because
they could
not
have
children,
and
therefore could not
keep
the
master race
alive.
unfortunately,
even
after the
liberation of
Dachau
tn
l945,Thaler
was
still
held
prisoner, this
time
by
u.s.
troops.
Because
Thaler
and
many
of
his inmates,
native
langtagewas
German, the soldiers
thought
the
political
prisoners were
s.s.
guards.
Thaler
and the
other prisoners
are
then forced
to
march
to
a death
camp in France
with
practically no
shelter
and

of food.
while
Thaler
fights for
his
life,

is
what

The book

overall,I
would
definitely
recolnmend this book
to my
peers.

and
it

Arthough
the

can
get
gruesome
and
rather
grim,
it
is
a
