About This Item
London: Routledge & Kegan Paul, 1966. Hard bound, first edition, xiii + Pp168. Short tear at top of front free endpaper else fine in moderately soiled, very good dust jacket. 405 grams. A number of ordinary men and women from all walks of life have stood up against tyrants in various parts of the world. Their motives may have been different, but one thing connected all: the desire to bring oppression to an end. In this book, Eugene Heimler has brought together a number of such people - people who at a point in their lives stood up against dictatorship and often risked their lives and livelihood. The German colonel who became aware of what Hitler really stood for; the Rabbi in South Africa who could not reconcile with his background; the Algerian Lawyer who had remained true to the Law at a time of lawlessness; the Polish writer, who had to fight on two fronts, against the Nazis and then against the Communists; the Irish playwriter, who was caught up in his youth in the fight against the British; and the Hungarian Jewish poet who recited his poems in concentration camps. All books in stock and available for immediate shipment from Winnipeg, Manitoba.
