Defying the Nazis: The Story of German Officer Wilm Hosenfeld, Young Readers Edition (Young Readers) (Young Readers)
Initially an ardent admirer of Adolf Hitler, Wilm Hosenfeld became aware of the Third Reich's relentless brutality against the Poles and Jews when he was stationed in Poland. Witnessing the Nazis' inhumanity changed Hosenfeld from an enemy occupier to a rescuer. Hosenfeld's heroic efforts to save Polish citizens was mostly unknown until a scene in the Oscar-winning film The Pianist brought to the public's attention a man whose compassion saved more than 60 people. Defying the Nazis is the first English biography of Wilm Hosenfeld.
