Re: research question



A friend of mine has visited Sobibor - and there is not much
left of it, because Himmler made it destroy after the
uprising of Sobibor. If you speak german or dutch, you could
read an excellent book about Sobibor, written by one of the
very few survivors: 

JULES SCHELVIS: "Vernichtungslager Sobibor"

I have translated this book from german into italian....

The book contains nearly everything: projects of the camp,
maps, information about the transports, gas - chambers, mass
- graves, executions, the uprising, the "Arbeitskommandos",
escapes, various rapports of other survivors, and the
biographies of the surviving vistims and the SS at
Sobibor....

A part from that there is a film about the uprising: its not
a good film, in the sense that it is not at all a work of
cinematographic art, but it provides a very good first
glance on the uprising and how it worked and was planned:

Escape from Sobibor, 
director Jack Gold
based on the book by Richard Rashke [which i did not read]

All-- I am writing a research paper on the Sobibor uprising.
No page that 
I've come across describes what it's like to visit Sobibor,
after the fact. 
Has anyone visited Sobibor? Can anyone provide any kind of
insight into what 
it's like to be there?  I appreciate any and all responses.
