Description

The White Rose Munich, 1942-1943 by Inge Scholl This book tells the story of Hans and Sophie Scholl, two German students who led an underground organization to oppose the atrocities committed by Hitler and the Nazi Party. The group, known as the White Rose, distributed leaflets denouncing the regime and was eventually caught and executed. Inge Scholl's account features letters, diary excerpts, photographs, and transcriptions of the leaflets, providing a gripping and personal look at courage and morality during one of history's darkest periods. A unique study of WW2 culture in Germany, The White Rose is a powerful and thought-provoking read.
