Printed: 200 pages, 6" x 9", perfect binding, black and white interior ink Description:There were thousands of Germans who fought courageously, and risked their and their families' lives taking a stand against Hitler, even after he and his criminal horde came to power. While a few of the most famous ones have received the publicity they well deserve, history has been silent about the rest of them. I wrote this book about my life and participation in the German Underground in order to make their voices heard, and give them the recognition and respect which humanity owes them.

Mr. Bonart must be among the few witnesses of the German underground movement still alive today. He speaks eloquently and passionately about his wife, Bertha and so many others who like him tried in vain to stop or even interrupt the inglorious and insidious Nazi march. While a large part of the German nation lost its conscience, and while Hitler hoodwinked many world leaders, there were countless Germans like Paul Bonart who fought cleverly, daringly and staunchly against the racial and nation-devouring policies of the National Socialists.
Mr. Bonart’s voice from the German underground should give hope and courage to those today in still too many places throughout the world who are resisting oppression and trying to be heard through the clamor of war and dehumanization. Mr. Bonart’s memories are of historical importance, but anyone who reads this book will be moved by the story of this extraordinary group who in Germany’s darkest days maintained clarity, principles and conscience.

What do we say Now?
This is a thrilling book with its blood red cover a broken swastica, its back cover of Paul, Bertha, and the modest apartment from which they risked their lives to overthrow non-violently the thugs legally taking over perhaps the most cultured and democratic government in the world. To not know history puts us at the mercy of any ruler. In the U.S.A. almost all information is increasingly controlled by a small wealthy elite and its acolytes- and those that serve the elite are enormously rewarded for being obedient and instantly punished for telling the truth This book is history with the truth told by one who lived it. With money controlling the vast amount of available information and propaganda the method of control, a modest book such as this, told from the perspective of one who lived it, is a rare gem indeed. ......Mr. Bonart's book should be required reading in all history and social science classes in high school and college. It has clear implications for us all.
