Two thousand of them were never seen again-their whereabouts remain a mystery. Seventy-five years later, their relatives still search for answers and the location of their mass burial. This book examines the fateful events of the Augustów Roundup (a.k.a. "little Katyn") through eyewitness testimonies."--
