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.… (mehr)
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?
