This book is more of an academic treatise than a military history--I guess the subtitle "a Critical Historiographical Analysis" should have tipped me off about the nature of the book.
Although the book is more than 400 pages long, I can't say that I learned much of interest by reading it. The first 20% of the book is taken up by descriptions of what Marx, Engels, and Lenin wrote about partisans and partisan warfare, and the general theme of the book is comparing what Western and Soviet historians said about partisans on the Eastern Front rather than actual accounts of partisan warfare.
In fact, when the book finally does transition to discussing the partisans at war, most of the information is rather general, and things like partisan tactics or operations are not discussed at all. The book discusses the partisans' general missions, their number (via various historians' estimates), how many radio sets they had, how many bridges they blew up, etc.
All in all might be a good book looking for a "Critical Historiographical Analysis" of the partisans, but not for someone interested in an account of partisan warfare.
