The twenty-eight day siege of the Warsaw Ghetto was one of the most protracted large-scale urban battles in World War II. Only the fighting at Leningrad from 1941-1943, Stalingrad in 1942-1943, the Warsaw Rebellion of 1944, and Budapest in 1944-1945 lasted longer. The Jews had resisted en masse and had created a legend that would transcend the war and continue even to this day. Much has been written on this heroic struggle from the standpoint of the young men and women of the Jewish War Organization. Nevertheless, a book from the German perspective has yet to be written that captures all aspects of the fight from the standpoint of the attackers until now. The Ghetto Men presents every fact possible concerning the who, when, with what and how the SS troops razed the Warsaw Ghetto. The men and officers of the dreaded Security Service and Gestapo are here as well as the units, weapons and tactics, and a day-by-day analysis of the fighting.

The ghetto men,

This review is from: The Ghetto Men: The SS Destruction of the Jewish Warsaw Ghetto April-May 1943 (Hardcover)
A good quality book that gives a good insight in the actions of the German troops that were involved in the destruction of the Warschau ghetto.
For the collectors of German WW2 related documents this book has a wealth of information: involved units list, officers list, KIA/WIA lists. An excellent reference work.
