Offers profiles of fifteen German citizens from all walks of life who followed their consciences and opposed Hitler
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
This deeply stirring book honors Germans who risked their lives by defying Nazi tyranny. Snyder ( Hitler's Elite ) has collected documents about 15 citizens of the Third Reich from military, political, diplomatic, academic, legal, aristocratic and journalistic circles who became "martyrs for the sake of humanity" by obeying conscience rather than following the dictates of the Nazi state. Among them are Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer who, with his brother-in-law, legal expert Hans Dohnanyi, carried proposals for peace terms with the allies; General Ludwig Beck, chief of the army general staff, who openly defied Hitler; Count Claus von Stauffenberg, a leading figure in the July 1944 assassination attempt on the Fuhrer; and siblings Hans and Sophie Scholl, Munich Univeristy students who waged a leaflet campaign against the regime.
