| Zusammenfassung: | Peter Hoffmann is without question the leading authority on the history of the German resistance. His History of the German Resistance, 1933–1945 (1977) remains the best comprehensive history of the struggle to remove Hitler and the Nazis from power, and it is unlikely that it will be surpassed in scope, detail, and mastery of sources. Stauffenberg: A Family History, 1905–1944 (1995, 1999, 2008) is similarly excellent. Hoffmann has consistently argued that leaders of the German resistance were motivated above all by moral and ethical convictions rooted in the best of the Christian and humanist traditions, not the least of which was their anguish over the Nazi persecution of the Jews. |
