Summary/Abstract: The publication contains a complete Polish edition of notes of Poale Zion-Left party activist and member of the command of the Jewish Fighting Organisation (ZOB), Hersh Berlinski (1908-1944), written when he was hiding in Warsaw in 1944. Compared to the editions published in the first half of the 1960s, the new material includes passages considered by the editors to be less important, and above all those removed for censorship reasons. The edition of previously published excerpts is based on the existing translation revised by Adam Kopciowski, who also translated unpublished portions of the text. The introductory section presents Hersh Berliński, his fate during the war, the circumstances of his death, and the characteristics of previous editions.
