Rupert Butler is the foremost chronicler of the horrifying story of Hitler's plans to extinguish the nations of Europe. He reveals, in chilling detail, the plans for the wholesale killings and subjection of Eastern Europe, including the Final Solution of the gas chambers. Yet along with the persecution came not only the canker of collaboration, but also the burning zeal of resistance. This is a story not only of subjugation but also of heroism, of unshakeable and dauntless faith in the ultimate liberation from the most evil tyranny the world has ever known.
