Dietrich Bonhoeffer had been expecting this day for a long time. He had put his papers in order--and left a few notes specifically for Hitler's men to see. Two SS agents climbed the stairs and told the boyish-looking Bonhoeffer to come with them. He calmly said good-bye to his parents, put his Bible under his arm, and left. Upstairs there was proof, in his own handwriting, that this quiet young minister was part of a conspiracy to kill Adolf Hitler. This compelling, brilliantly researched account includes the remarkable discovery that Bonhoeffer was one of the first people to provide evidence to the Allies that Jews were being deported to death camps. It takes readers from his privileged early childhood to the studies and travel that would introduce him to peace activists around the world--eventually putting this gentle, scholarly pacifist on a deadly course to assassinate one of the most ruthless dictators in history. 521 8 1000L|bLexile 526 0 Accelerated Reader|bMG|c7.6|d4|z184181 600 10 Bonhoeffer, Dietrich|y1906-1945|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Hitler, Adolf|y1889-1945|xAssassination attempt, 1944 (July 20)|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Clergy|zGermany|vBiography|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Anti-Nazi movement|zGermany|vJuvenile literature.
