商品簡介
Jagerstatter (1907-43) was one of many men who refused to serve in the Nazi war machine and was murdered for it. What he stands out for is his articulation of his views in his letters. A Catholic Austrian farmer, he joined the army to go through training as the path of least resistance and then return home. When he was called up for active duty, he chose to follow his conscience rather than his country or church. The volume contains his letters to his wife during his military training and from prison, and earlier writings from his notebooks, letters, poems, and essays Annotation c2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
