Christ in Dachau, or Christ Victorious

Anne Barbeau Gardiner reviews a first-hand account of that title by Father John M. Lenz which "reveals how atheists of all stripes -- criminals, socialists, communists, and SS agents -- joined forces in Dachau to persecute Catholic priests" — The Miracle of Christ in Dachau.

The account informs us (1) of "communist prisoners serving as SS henchmen," (2) of "the greatest martyrdom of priests in the history of the Church," (3) that "there were only 141 non-Catholic clergymen in Dachau, as opposed to 2,400 Catholic priests," and (4) that "Hitler had boasted, 'I shall crush the Catholic Church like a toad.'"
