Here, author      Joshua M. Greene (Signs      of Survival) tells the true      story of a young Jewish woman who was instrumental in the uprising      as a smuggler of messages and weapons into and out of the Warsaw      Ghetto.      Warsaw, Poland, 1940s: The Nazis are on the march, determined      to wipe out the Jewish people of Europe. Teenage Vladka and her family      are among the thousands of Jews forced to relocate behind the      walls of the Warsaw Ghetto, a cramped, oppressive space full of      starvation, suffering and death.      When Vladka’s family is deported to concentration camps,      Vladka joins up with other young people in the ghetto who are part      of the Jewish underground: a group determined to fight back against      the Nazis, no matter the cost.      Vladka’s role in the underground? To pass as a non-Jew,      sneaking out of the ghetto to blend into Polish society while smuggling      secret messages and weapons back over the ghetto wall. Every      move she makes comes with the risk of being arrested or killed.      But Vladka and her friends know that their missions are worth the      danger –they are preparing for an uprising like no other,      one that will challenge the Nazi war machine.            This astonishing true story of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, told      through the lens of Holocaust survivor and educator Vladka Meed      Introduces readers to a crucial piece of history while highlighting      the persistence of bravery in the face of hate      A beautifully written and thoughtfully designed work of narrative      nonfiction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53543330840950,"sku":"9781338815290","price":19.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_30938493.jpg?v=1729695212","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781338815290-through-the-telescope","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
