Covers the ground well

It can be difficult to find resources on opposition to the Nazi regime, a feature often neglected by textbooks. I was teaching an A level synoptic unit on the Third Reich and found McDonough's book to provide an excellent basis for study of this area, replete with good primary source material as a primer to unpick the issues.

Good for initial scholarly reviews

A good review of the few resistance movements within Nazi Germany. Great for a primer, and for use as a base reference for knowledge of where to look for more in depth materials for Nazi Reistance movements within Germany.
