The 400-page volume is illustrated with many photographs of Jewish partisans in action and of Jewish partisans leaders. It also contains documents pertinent to the life of the underground fighters, particularly in their forest camps. The expenses of publication were met by the National Jewish Workers Alliance of the United States.
