Striking back : a Jewish commando's war against the Nazis
1997
In all probability, the Nazis' greatest enemies were Jews who gave up everything but their lives to flee the deadly persecution they were enduring in Germany, Austria, and Eastern Europe. Unknown to everyone except military personnel with a "need to know," eighty-seven of these escapees were recruited into a commando unit in the British Army unlike any other, comprised almost entirely of Jewish refugees. Includes bibliographical references (page 331) and index. xiii, 340 pages : illustrations, maps ; 23 cm
