"The trumpets of Jericho is the first book, and only novel, devoted in its entirety to one of the more remarkable episodes in the annals of Jewish resistance to the Nazis--the defiant 1944 uprising at the SS death camp Auschwitz--and the just as inspiring account of the four young female conspirators arrested and savagely tortured by the Gestapo during the investigation that followed. As one of architects of the rebellion, Roza Robota, arguably the greatest Jewish heroine to come out of the Holocaust yet all but unknown to this day, is brought to vivid and long overdue life. Prepare to meet her and the rest of the heroes, and villains, in this epochal saga that will both thrill and horrify you at the heights and depths our unpredictable species is capable of reaching."--Publisher.
