Alternatives to Hitler: German Resistance under the Third Reich

When the doyen of twentieth-century German historians writes on the subject for which he is best known, in the genre in which he excels, nothing can go wrong. And this is indeed the case. Mommsens work on the German Resistance is political history par excellence.--Michael Geyer, University of Chicago Mommsen has produced the standard work on the subject--faultless, it leaves nothing to be desired. His range is both broad and penetrating. . . . The biographical chapters are a veritable Whos Who of the Resistance.--Suuml;ddeutsche Zeitung No work on the events of 1944 or the plot against Hitler can afford to ignore Mommsens book. It is unavoidable.--Europauml;ische Sicherheit This English translation will be invaluable to all students who have no access to the German original.--Ian Kershaw, University of Sheffield
