The Confessing Church was one of the rare German organizations that opposed Nazism from the very beginning; and in For the Soul of the People; Victoria Barnett delves into the story of the Church's resistance to Hitler. For this remarkable story; Barnett interviewed more than sixty Germans who were active in the Confessing Church; asking them to reflect on their personal experiences under Hitler and how they see themselves; morally and politically; today. She provides a haunting glimpse of the German experience under Hitler; but also gives a provocative look into what it has meant to be a German in the twentieth century.
