A wonderful book on Protestantism and the holocaust told from the first person by a cell mate of the famous pastor. This book is hard to come across but it is a gem of scholarship, a very inspirational story of faith in the face of evil. While the catholic church was interested in complying with Hitler Mr. Niemoeller refused to leave the pulpit, his fiery speeches attacked Hitler himself until finally the Nazis took him away. An amazing man and author of the famous quote they came for the communists and I was not a communist.. This man was the moral conscience of the Germans who opposed all that was evil in Nazism and this book is a remarkable rendition that will make you cry when you realize the heroism of the very human man of god.

amazing account of this great man and his struggle to save germany from its self. WOnderful

this book, which i believed to be legit when I purchased it, is a right wing ,and I mean right wing[other titles, the civil war was right,the south was correct to secede Nathan bedford Forest, well you get it. It opens with a bizarre introduction talking about Whittiker Chambers,Alger hiss's boy toy and pumpkin eater and Margret Sanger founder of planned parenthood and a racist, and then talking about the left and...sigh.What is this crapola? how come this book is not listed as true by the Niemoller family?this is fiction, I reckon.I want a refund.BEWARE

According to Dr. James Bentley, an Anglican vicar, senior chaplain at Eton College, etc. this book is a complete fabrication and is warned about in Martin Niemoller: 1892-1984 by James Bently. Think about it: Why would a Jew be imprisoned with a Protestant? How would he have possibly gotten out to write his report? This book was written in 1942.
