If This Is a Man

The census claim is confirmed on the Italian first and corrected on the English imprint: the sources consulted place the 1959 Orion Press first English edition in New York, and no separate simultaneous London issue is documented among them — cite it as New York rather than "New York/London". Two traps attach to this title. First, the Einaudi edition of 1958 is the revised "definitive" text and is a first thus, not the first edition, despite being the text nearly all later translations follow. Second, the title trap: "Survival in Auschwitz: The Nazi Assault on Humanity" is the American retitling of the same Stuart Woolf translation on later US issues, not a different work and not a first — the first English appearance is under the title If This Is a Man.
