Abstract:
Those Germans, such as Count Claus von Stauffenberg, who fought the Third Reich from within have often been mythologised as heroes in the fight against tyranny but the truth is far more complex. This book traces the history of the German resistance from the ascent of the Nazi party to the July 1944 attempted assassination of Hitler.
