The Light of Days: The Untold Story of Women Resistance Fighters in Hitler's Ghettos

"This book reads like adventure fiction but with a wealth of detail that makes you realize it’s a true story. Young Jewish women living in the Polish ghettos during the 1940s took enormous risks to resist the Nazis: They smuggled weapons, medicine and, sometimes, people. They took full advantage of the fact that as women, it was easier to pass as Catholic Poles. Though many were caught and killed, a few managed to make it out and live as Israeli citizens. Reading about their courage is astonishing and humbling."
