Content:
Most popular accounts of the Holocaust typically cast Jewish victims as meek and ask, 'Why didn't Jews resist?' But we know now that Jews did resist, staging armed uprisings in ghettos and camps throughout Nazi-occupied Europe. In 'Hope and Honor,' Rachel L. Einwohner illustrates the dangers in attempting resistance under unimaginable conditions and shows how remarkable such resistance was. She draws on oral testimonies, published and unpublished diaries and memoirs, and other written materials produced both by survivors and those who perished to show how Jews living under Nazi occupation in the ghettos of Warsaw, Vilna, and Lodz reached decisions about resistance.
