September 1938. In power more than five years, Hitler
unilaterally dismantled the Treaty of Versailles, provision by
provision, daring Britain and France to stand up to him. Earlier
that year, he forced Austria into his Third Reich without firing a
single shot. Now his sights were set on Czechoslovakia.
It was in this dangerous climate that the first anti-Nazi coup
was born. The plot was spearheaded by Lieutenant-Colonel Hans
Oster, and its members included top German military leaders, the
Berlin police, local troop commanders, civil authorities, religious
leaders, and a group of resisters whose names have been wiped from
the pages of history. Their mission was to kill Hitler and to
overthrow the Nazi regime.
Using British and German sources and previously unknown
documents in the Military History Institute of the U.S. Army War
College, historian Terry Parssinen has documented this conspiracy.
Illustrated with photographs and maps, this highly provocative work
is narrative history at its best.
