Synopsis

This book is a response to the oft-perpetrated myths of British Jewry s lack of fighting spirit and its failure to participate in the Second World War. British Jewry has never formed more than about one half of 1 per cent of the population, yet the figures show that their contribution to the armed forces has always been out of proportion to their numbers. Fighting Back and the forthcoming companion volume by Henry Morris and Martin Sugarman, will stand as permanent testimony to the truth.
