The harrowing diaries of 'Polish Ann Frank' that lay forgotten in New York for DECADES: Fifteen-year-old girl who was shot dead in Przemyśl ghetto published for the first time
The tragic story of 'Poland's Anne Frank' who was killed during the Second World War has given a harrowing insight into what life was like in Nazi Germany. Renia Spiegel was just 18-years-old when the Nazis invaded Przemysl, a city in south-east Poland, and began to round up Jews. Some 22,000 were rounded up for deportation to death camps but Renia hid herself in an attic on the outskirts of the Jewish ghetto where the Nazi's were rounding up Jews. There, she penned her diary - pages from school exercise books which had been bound together - which eventually ended up being nearly 700 pages long. She had begun writing it at the end of January 1939, eight months before Germany's invasion of Poland which triggered the firing gun for the start of the conflict. Her last entry, dated July 25, 1942, was shortly before her death at the hands of Nazi officers. The diary reappeared in New York Ci
