Safe in Palestine during World War II, she volunteered                 for a mission to help rescue fellow Jews in her native Hungary.                 She was captured by the Nazis, endured imprisonment and                 torture, and was finally executed at the age of twenty-three. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike Anne Frank, she kept a diary from the                 time she was thirteen. This new edition brings together not                 only the widely read and cherished diary, but many of                 Hannah’s poems and letters, memoirs written by                 Hannah’s mother, accounts by parachutists who accompanied                 Hannah on her fateful mission, and insightful material not                 previously published in English. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDescribed by a fellow parachutist as a                 “spiritual girl guided almost by mysticism,”                 Hannah’s life has something of value to teach everyone.                 Now the subject of a feature-length documentary, Blessed Is the                 Match: The Life and Death of Hannah Senesh, Hannah’s                 words and actions will inspire people from each generation to                 follow their own inner voices, just as she followed hers. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turner Publishing Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47111911309552,"sku":"9781580235754","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781580235754_p0.jpg?v=1763777989","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781580235754","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
