Kersten’s Lists

Francois Kersaudy

The astonishing true story of Heinrich Himmler’s personal physical therapist who used his influence over the S.S. commander to save the lives of thousands.

Felix Kersten, an exceptional masseur, was the only person able to relieve Himmler’s crippling and chronic abominal pain. Although he was resolutely anti-Nazi, he continued to work for Himmler throughout the war, trading his services for that of prisoners’ lives.

Francois Kersaudy’s meticulously researched Kersten’s Lists, explores how by the end of the war, Felix Kersten had helped to obtain the liberation of some 100,000 people, including 60,000 Jews. It is a vital and too little known chapter of the Second World War and one worthy of greater recognition.
