Goes through various periods and places of Jewish leftist history from 1910s - 1950s, with specific empasis on interwar Poland, Spanish Civil War, Jewish Resistance fighters, and both pre/post Nakba Palestine. 

Definitely a product of its time/authors to an extent (1980s) and the writing style can be somewhat heavy handed and awkward at times, potentially because of the translation. Overall, gave some interesting insights into pieces if Jewish history I didn't know about before. Definitely recommend reading in a group/book club as some parts can be hard to parse on your own.
