Softbound. 8vo. VII, 406, [16] pages. 22 cm. First English edition. Translation of “Degalim me-`al ha-Geto. “ Publishers description: “In this groundbreaking work, Israel’s former Minister of Defense, Professor Moshe Arens, recounts a true tale of daring, courage, and sacrifice that should be accurately told – out of respect for and in homage to the fighters who rose against the German attempt to liquidate the Warsaw ghetto, and made a last-ditch fight for the honor of the Jewish people. The generally accepted account of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising is incomplete. The truth begins with the existence of not one, but two resistance organizations in the ghetto. Two young men, Mordechai Anielewicz of the Jewish Fighting Organization (ZOB) , and Pawel Frenkel of the Jewish Military Organization (ZZW) , rose to lead separate resistance organizations in the ghetto, which did not unite despite the desperate battle they were facing. Included is the complete text of “The Stroop Report” translated into English. Subjects: World War, 1939-1945 - Jewish resistance - Poland - Warsaw. Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) - Poland - Warsaw. Jews - Poland - Warsaw - History - 20th century. Warsaw (Poland) - History - Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, 1943. Near fine condition. (HOLO2-99-12).
