From the New York Times bestselling author of Amazing Grace,
a groundbreaking biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, one of
the greatest heroes of the twentieth century, the man who
stood up to Hitler. A definitive, deeply moving narrative, Bonhoeffer is a story
of moral courage in the face of the monstrous evil that was
Nazism. After discovering the fire of true faith in a Harlem church,
Bonhoeffer returned to Germany and became one of the first
to speak out against Hitler. As a double-agent, he joined
the plot to assassinate the Fuhrer, and was hanged in
Flossenberg concentration camp at age 39. Since his death,
Bonhoeffer has grown to be one of the most fascinating,
complex figures of the 20th century. Bonhoeffer presents a profoundly orthodox Christian
theologian whose faith led him to boldly confront the
greatest evil of the 20th century, and uncovers
never-before-revealed facts, including the story of his
passionate romance.
