Synopsis
This is a harrowing, utterly moving memoir of a young Polish Jew who chose not to go quietly and defied the mighty Nazi war machine during World War II. Frank Blaichman was sixteen years old when the war broke out. In 1942, the killings began in Poland. With his family and friends decimated by the roundups, Blaichman decided that he would rather die fighting; he set off for the forest to find the underground bunkers of Jews who had already escaped. Together they formed a partisan force dedicated to fighting the Germans. Table of Contents: Days of Terror and a Decision to Escape From Farmhouse to Forest Finding Allies, Killing Collaborators The Raid on Leszec Castle Russian Airdrops and Sabotage Missions Final Engagements and the German Retreat Return to Poland "IT IS AN HONOR TO WRITE a few words of introduction to this exceptional memoir.

Frank Blaichman commanded a Jewish partisan platoon. These seven words, so simple, and at the same time so unusual, mask a story of drama and danger, a story of which the Jewish people can be proud."--Sir Martin Gilbert, from his Introduction, Frank Blaichman was sixteen years old when the war broke out.

Together they formed a partisan force dedicated to fighting the Germans. This is a harrowing, utterly moving memoir of a young Polish Jew who chose not to go quietly and defied the mighty German war machine during World War II., A gripping story of suffering, endurance, and the triumph against massive odds of the human spirit.
