Why read it?
1 author picked The 12-year Reich as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
No one can understand the German Resistance to Hitler without first understanding Nazi Germany — its ideology, its institutions, and its psychology.

From Helena's list on German resistance to Hitler.
