"Sophie Scholl and Fritz Hartnagel's true story adds an important perspective to German Resistance history. Without Fritz's first hand testimony about what he experienced on the Eastern and Western fronts, Sophie may not have been able to act as boldly as she did. I've dedicated over ten years to researching and writing this story. By being fluent (in German), I was able to translate Fritz's letters into English for the first time. I hope that my readers will gain a new understanding about Sophie Scholl's motivation and the German Army's role in World War II. Above all, however, theirs is a timeless love story about two brave individuals caught on opposite sides of war." - Alexandra Lehmann
