2012.
Sophie Scholl and her brother Hans were handsome, bright
university students in 1942 Germany. As members of the Hitler
Youth, they had once been enthusiastic supporters of the
German renewal promised by National Socialism. But as their
realization of Nazi barbarism grew, so did their moral outrage.
Hans and Sophie formed a small group of like-minded friends,
which initially included two medical students, a student of
philosophy, and a fifty-year-old professor. They self-identified
as Christians from various traditions-Protestant, Catholic, and
Orthodox-and they called themselves the White Rose. In a
darkened studio lent them by an artist, they printed eloquent
anti-Nazi leaflets, which they ingeniously spread throughout
Germany. This book tells the true story of this underground
group at the University of Munich that instigated, organized,
and carried out the first overt resistance to Hitler's regime.
What gives the book its unforgettable and inspiring quality is
the personality, character, and courage of the White Rose
members, as they resisted the pull of wartime patriotism and
overcame their fear of the terrible price they would pay for
their dissidence.
