THE GIRL BANDITS OF THE WARSAW GHETTO
New in History from Elizabeth R. Hyman
A Holocaust historian, archivist, and history blogger adds a new dimension to the story of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising during World War II, shining a long overdue spotlight on five young, Polish Jewish women—champions who helped lead the resistance, sabotage the Nazis, and aid Jews in hiding across occupied Poland and Eastern Europe.
"A meticulous portrait of five women central to the resistance movement within the Warsaw Ghetto during WWII. It’s a spellbinding saga of daring acts of resistance in the face of certain death." —Publishers Weekly
"Readers will still be entranced by all the emotion and intrigue of this emotional and thrilling account. A superb addition to World War II and Holocaust history, recommended for all general collections." —Library Journal
"The Girl Bandits of the Warsaw Ghetto tells a story of such heroism, and Hyman’s researched portrait is so captivating, that this retold piece of Jewish history is difficult to put down and impossible to forget." —The Jewish Book Council
