β¦ Synopsis
One of the few survivors of the 1943 Warsaw ghetto uprising, Holocaust scholar Gutman draws on diaries, personal letters, and underground press reports in this compelling, authoritative account of a landmark event in Jewish history. Here, too, is a portrait of the vibrant culture that shaped the young fighters whose inspired defiance would have far reaching implications for the Jewish people and the State of Israel, founded exactly fifty years ago.
