It is fair to say that the subject material this book deals with is harrowing. The book describes the Jewish resistance during World War 2. The book is a hard read not just with the subject matter but also with the way it is written. It starts out in a novel style but as it progresses the facts overtake the story of the resistance movement. There are simply too many facts, figures and political explanations for this to be considered a novel. However the novel style writing also means there are not enough facts and figures for the book to be a text book. Instead this book is caught in no mans land between the two. Due to this I struggled through this book. Although I will take a lot with me from this book it was just not my sort of thing. ( )
This reads like a Frederick Forsyth novel, honestly. All the secret assassinations and the people from all walks of life coming together -- and the plan to poison the water supply of Munich. (Glad that never got off the ground. That crosses the line from revenge to terrorism.) It's well-written but I have a hard time believing it -- why haven't I heard of this all before? ( )

Wij smeken u: in naam van het vergoten bloed van onze kinderen - neem wraak! Wreek onze gefolterde moeders, wreek onze vermoorde martelaren - neem wraak voor ons! (Mordechai Tennenbaum Tamaroff, commandant van de Organisatie van Joodse Vrijheidsstrijders in Bialystok, gedood tijdens de joodse opstand tegen de Duitsers in Bialystok, augustus 1943.)
