Harro and Libertas - A Story of Love and Resistance

Harro and Libertas - A Story of Love and Resistance Book Description “I did my best, until the last moment, and I am dying for my own idea, not for someone else's idea, not for the sake of an enemy's idea. I know that my idea, our idea, will win, even if we, as small pioneers, fall. (...) We would like the German people to be spared the worst. Our little group fought tall and bravely. We fought for freedom and we were not cowards. Thank you all! Let's be strong until the last moment!” A resistance struggle against the Nazi power... A group later called the "Red Orchestra" that resisted the regime by distributing illegal leaflets, collecting intelligence for the anti-fascist allied forces, and helping those whose lives were in danger... An extremely flexible group , a tangled web of relationships: There are conservatives, nationalists, liberals, social democrats, communists, there are those who are not committed to a particular political idea. There are aristocrats, academics, artists, civil servants, officers and workers. There are old people, there are young people. They are men and women, about half. At the center of the resistance network are a passionate young man and a passionate young woman, both of whom come from nationalist-conservative families and environments: Harro and Libertas, who give their names to the book. The story of resistance is intertwined with the love story of the two. Harro and Libertas tell this tragic story like a novel, based on extensive documentation. (From the Promotional Bulletin)
