Summary: Amazing
Comment: Rich Cohen's book The Avengers truly amazed me. Prior to hearing him speak and reading his book, I had only heard one story of Jewish Life in Europe during the second world war. To hear this other story, the story of Jews who refused to go like sheep to the slaughter, the story of Jews who fought, gives new perspective, and a new understanding of the people that lived in those times.
Rich Cohen's book reads far more like a novel than like a historical text, and at times, I found that aggravating. I wanted more details, and fewer assumptions. But, for what this book is, it is trully amazing. I only hope someone will read this book and decide to do the historical research before it is far too late.
I highly recommend this book. It made me question what I am doing with my life.

Summary: The most important story you never heard
Comment: Rich Cohen's book, The Avengers: A Jewish War Story, tells the story of unknown heros.
Abba Kovner and the Avengers saved lives, and gave hope in desperate times. This pivitol moment in Jewish History is a crucial element of the heroic history of the Jewish People. The Avengers descirbes desperate Jews who faught to live rather than being taken to their deaths like cattle.
Rich Cohen's story is almost impossible to stop reading. This author's account of theses heroic people and thier feats of bravery is a must read for all people. An individual can not have a total understanding of the Jewish people without reading Rich Cohen's account of this story.

Summary: An Important Story
Comment: I started reading this on a Saturday night and had it done by Tuesday morning. Granted, that did include a two hour train ride, however, it is a book that is hard to put down. Not that this is a pleasant story, much of it is not. However, it is an important one and one well told by the author. It tells the story of how a handful of people, not raised or trained to be warriors, chose to fight, rather than die without struggle. Heroes are born of circumstances not of their making. These people did not want to be heroes. However, they were determined not to be silent victims. Mr. Cohen tells their story, sometimes bluntly, but with the ring of truth. This is a book that should be read by everyone, especially those who think that no one fought back, the Avengers did. Buy and read this book.
