"The writing was a bit dry and included way more detail than I really needed, but I stuck with it (skimmed a little, too) and ended up with a fairly well-rounded picture of Jewish life in Warsaw before and during WWII."
"This is not an audio book, despite what GoodReads matched it to. (Apparently no one else reads this...). But an excellent non-fiction work by a survivor of the Warsaw Ghetto. After seeing the movie "Uprising" I was curious as to the truth of the details. In the course of reading this book, I've found that it was largely accurate."
"This is the most important book I have ever read on Jews in World War II. For the first time in my education, Jews were not presented as victims waiting to be saved. After reading "Resistance," I realized (what seems should be obvious) that many Jews refused to submit to their oppressors. They participated in clandestine and open acts of protest and war! This book made me aware that most holocaust history at best makes us sympathize with Jews, yet simultaneously debilitates us. "Resistance," on the other hand, presents Jews as strong people capable of inspiritation and leaves you feeling empowered."
"Unbelievable amount of information and detail in such a small volume. Gutman seems to have complied information from thousands of sources and boiled it down to exactly what one wants and needs to know."
