	Warsaw Ghetto (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		The Warsaw Ghetto was the largest of the Jewish ghettos established by Nazi Germany in Poland during the Holocaust in World War II.
		In the three years of its existence, starvation, disease and relocations to concentration camps dropped the population of the ghetto from an estimated 380,000 to 70,000.
		German sentry units near the ghetto walls were sporadically attacked by Polish units from AK and GL.

	Rising '44: 'The Battle for Warsaw', by Norman Davies
		The Warsaw uprising of August 1944 was one of the most tragic episodes of the second world war, resulting in the destruction of the city and some 200,000 of its inhabitants.
		Its real merit is that it lifts the question of the Warsaw rising out of the parochial Polish conundrum of whether it was justified or not and places it firmly at the centre of Allied policy and planning, where it belongs.
		Instead, SS General Erich Von dem Bach, the butcher of Warsaw and a notorious murderer in the campaign against Soviet partisans, was used as a witness for the prosecution.

		Ghettoes were a preliminary step to the concentration camps.
		Jews were sent to these ghettoes with nothing more than the clothes on their backs, and living conditions were extremely squalid.
		In the Warsaw ghetto, which held 500,000 Jews, 45,000 died in 1941 alone due to starvation, disease, and hard labor, among others.

	Marek Jan Chodakiewicz. The Warsaw Rising 1944: Perception and Reality
		The Warsaw Rising (August 1, 1944 – October 3, 1944) was a seminal watershed in Poland’s modern history.
		Despite the tragedy of Warsaw in 1944, the symbolism of the enormity of its sacrifice sustained two generations of the Polish elite at home and abroad in their battle for Poland’s freedom.
		During the Warsaw Rising Woś was cut off from his unit and joined an auxiliary insurgent construction detachment in the Old Town.

	General Government
		In April 1943 the Germans began deporting the remaining Jews from the Warsaw Ghetto, provoking the Warsaw Ghetto Rising, April 19 to May 16.
		In July 1944, as the Soviet armed forces approached Warsaw, the government in exile called for an uprising in the city, so that they could return to a liberated Warsaw and try to prevent a Communist take-over.
		The AK, led by Tadeusz Bór-Komorowski;, launched the Warsaw Rising on 1st August in response both to their government and to Soviet and Allied promises of help.

		...The ghetto was to be razed to the ground...

	Report on the Warsaw Ghetto Revolt
		Movement was stopped in a number of streets close to the ghetto on the Aryan side and the Jewish stronghold surrounded by a great ring of armed German units.
		For the past several days, huge clouds of smoke have been rising up over the ghetto, and at night tremendous flames are seen over the northern part of the city.
		But it is a fact that in the six days that have passed since the Germans began the Aktion against the Warsaw ghetto, the Jews have not suffered defeat, and they reveal absolute determination to continue their self-defense and the struggle, and it looks as though it may continue for a longer period.

		In August 1944, Warsaw appeared to present the last major obstacle to the Soviet army's triumphant march from Moscow to Berlin.
		Largely sidelined in history books and often confused with Ghetto Uprising of 1943, the 1944 Warsaw Rising was a pivotal moment both in the outcome of the Second World War and in the origins of the cold war.
		The Warsaw Uprising was probably the largest single operation organized and executed by a partisan organization in WWII.

		Rising ’44 lacks the pace and the fizz of Antony Beevor’s excellent works on Stalingrad and Berlin, and it has a tendency to become bogged down in the impossibly complicated politics of the day, making it an often demanding read.
		Rising ‘44 is at times a laborious read, but ultimately a rewarding one.
		Davies warns in his introduction that this is not a definitive account of the Uprising, and with so many questions left unanswered, and so many files still locked in Moscow vaults, we are inclined to agree with him.

		The sorrow rising from such questions is deeper than all tragedy and leaves us mute before a mystery the human mind cannot penetrate.
		Centuries ago, after another experience of sorrow and captivity, the Psalmist wrote, "They who sow in tears shall reap in joy." The fighters in the Warsaw ghetto sowed the seeds of courage and dignity, and we reap their harvest today in solemn gratitude.

	Amazon.ca: Books: Rising '44: The Battle for Warsaw (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		The Warsaw rising of 1944—not to be confused with the Warsaw Ghetto uprising of 1943—pitted Polish insurgents of the Home Army against the Germans in a two-month battle that left the city in ruins.
		The heroism of the Rising is much underappreciated, as is the malice of the Soviets and inaction of the Americans and British in relation to supporting it.
		This extremely well-written book outlines the history both before, during and after the '44 rising, and the great detail shows that there was a deliberate ignoring of the plight of the Polish patriots by their Western allies, with a stalling on the part of the Soviets until the rising was crushed by the Nazis.

		The Warsaw Rising of 1944 is often confused with the Jewish Ghetto Rising of 1944, so much so thatin 1970 Chancellor Brandt commemorated the Warsaw Rising by paying homage to the jews.
		I had some awareness of the Ghetto Uprising, but had never heard of the Warsaw Uprising until I visited Warsaw with my Polish son in law.
		Norman Davies shows how the Rising, far too long overlooked, confused with the 1943 Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, or downright forgotten, marked the start of the War's endgame, contributed to the shaping of post-War Poland and the division of Europe, anticipated the disintegration of the wartime Alliance and the fall of the Iron Curtain.

	The Warsaw Ghetto 'Uprising' -- Jewish Insurrection or German Police Operation?
		Following the first Soviet air attack against central Warsaw on August 21, 1942, bomb shelters were built, on German orders, everywhere in the city, including the ghetto, for the protection of the residents.
		One should not doubt either the courage of the Jewish resistance in the ghetto or the tragic nature of the whole affair, with the civilian population trapped in the cross-fire between various heterogeneous German units and small groups of Jewish guerrillas scattered throughout the ghetto.
		In the entry, 'Warsaw Ghetto Uprising,' in Encyclopedia of the Holocaust (New York: 1990), historian Israel Gutman writes: 'The Warsaw ghetto uprising was the first instance in occupied Europe of an uprising by an urban population.

		Using this foundation, Davies argues that the Allies were fully aware of the plans for a civilian uprising in Warsaw against the Nazis-this is a claim that the Allies have often dismissed since the war.
		The Warsaw Uprising is at its centre, but it would also serve as a good general introduction to the Second World War in Europe as well as the Cold War that followed and the recent emergence of modern Poland.
		The rising was smashed and Poland entered 45 years of communist terror.
