A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

From the brilliant storyteller who gave us Exodus, QB VII, The Haj, and Mitla Pass

It was a time of crisis, a time of tragedy—and a time of transcendent courage and determination.  Leon Uris's blazing novel is set in the midst of the ghetto uprising that defied Nazi tyranny, as the Jews of Warsaw boldly met Wehrmacht tanks with homemade weapons and bare fists. Here, painted on a canvas as broad as its subject matter, is the compelling of one of the most heroic struggles of modern times.

“Not only authentic as history . . . it is convincing as fiction. . . . The story of a sacrifice that had real meaning and will forever be remembered . . . A fine and important novel!”—The New York Times
