Description
Describes the events that led to the German invasion of Poland and the three-week siege of the city of Warsaw; examines the daily life of ghetto-imprisoned Jews, the work of social welfare groups and underground activists, cooperative smuggling by city and ghetto citizens, and the overwhelming disease and starvation of the ghetto; and details the foredoomed street uprising by a population that chose to "die with honor."
