Uris, Leon, 1924-2003.
Mila 18 / Leon Uris. - [1st ed.] - Garden City, N.Y. : Doubleday, 1961. - 539 p. ; 22 cm.
Mila 18 was the command post of the resistance movement organized by the Warsaw Jews. This is the story of the handful of men and women who, knowing they had to die, defied the whole German Army with their homemade weapons and bare hands. 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.
