Drawing on personal archives, letters, interviews and memoirs, it lays bare their brutality and love; courage and weakness; action, apathy and grief; hope, pain, joy, and despair. Within its pages we encounter people from all walks of life -- foresters, priests, farmers and nuns; innkeepers, Nazi officials, veterans and party members; village councillors, mountaineers, socialists, slave labourers, schoolchildren, tourists and aristocrats. We meet the Jews who survived -- and those who didn't; the Nazi mayor who tried to shield those persecuted by the regime; and a blind boy whose life was judged "not worth living." This is a tale of conflicting loyalties and desires, of shattered dreams--but one in which, ultimately, human resilience triumphs. These are the stories of ordinary lives at the crossroads of history"-- $c Provided by publisher 650 0 $a National socialism $x History. $z Germany $x History. 650 0 $a National socialism $z Germany $x History. $x History. 650 0 $a Fascism $x History. $z Germany $x History. 650 0 $a Fascism $z Germany $x History. $x History. 650 0 $a Villages $z Germany $x History. $x History. 651 0 $a Oberstdorf (Germany) $x History. $x History. 651 0 $a Germany $x Social conditions $y 1933-1945. 700 1 $a Patel Angelika. 941 $a 1 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20240702030004.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8D8D885A383D11EFA74ADF9234ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
