The Trumpets of Jericho: A Tale of the Holocaust - Softcover
The Trumpets of Jericho is really two novels in one, the rousing story of one of the more remarkable episodes in the annals of Jewish resistance to the Nazis-the prisoner uprising at the Auschwitz- Birkenau death camp in October, 1944-and the just as inspiring account of the four young women, little more than girls actually, arrested and brutally tortured for their role in the revolt.
In Trumpets, the historian J. Michael Dolan has produced a work that he believes will move you as deeply as its subject has him. Aside from bringing this epic tale and its main players to life (the first work of fiction ever to take on the task), he explores, among other themes, religion and the existence of God, the psychology of genocide, friendship and romantic love, sexual and other pathologies, the nature of good and evil, right and wrong.
Above all, he shows how the most monstrous crime ever committed was in the end no match for the indomitability, the grandeur of the human spirit.
