Critics Review
Praise for Partisan Song
“Packs an action-filled punch as it tells the story of Moshe Gildenman, a nearly-forgotten Jewish guerrilla warfare leader against the Nazis in Ukraine.” —The Times of Israel
“Full of real-life heroes … a stirring tribute to the courage of Jewish partisans. Grymes has written a stunning tale of resistance and bravery—a real page-turner.” —Heather Dune Macadam, author of 999
“A vivid, compelling, and unblinking account, beautifully researched and written .Grymes illustrates that Jews did not go ‘like sheep to the slaughter,’ but rather, fought back and exacted revenge. Highly recommended.” —Susan J. Eischeid, author of Mistress of Life and Death
“Award-winning author James A. Grymes honors both the resilience of one man and the strength of a people who refuse to be silenced.” —Mike Croissant, author of Bombing Hitler’s Hometown
