Why read it?

From Michela's list on German Resistance during WWII.
Peter Hoffmannâs father was involved in the resistance. For more than fifty years Professor Hoffmann has documented the history of the Germans who struggled against Nazism. He interviewed each eyewitness who was available and has compiled authoritative studies on the subject.

From Brian's list on plots to kill Hitler.
