Overview

This is the truly inspirational and autobiographical tale of one woman's courageous fight against the Nazi invasion of Poland during World War II. During the German invasion of Poland, thousands of Jewish families were forced to flee for their lives as the Nazi war machine occupied village after village, town after town. Many of them attempted to reach the safety of their Western allies, but some were determined to stay and resist - at any cost. ""Here, There Are No Sarahs"" is the remarkable true story of one such person. Only 18 years old when the Nazis began the 'liquidation' of the Polish quarter in which she lived, Sarah Shainwald and her family escaped to the forests along the borders of Poland, Ukraine, and Belarus, where they spent a brutal winter barely surviving. Hope came in the form of a Soviet partisan brigade, who took them in, hid their identities - giving Sarah the new name of Sonia - and taught them how to fight back against the Germans. A truly inspirational tale, this is a must-read volume for anyone who wants to understand how important the partisan movement was to the whole theatre of war.
