The true story of a German pastor and Nazi resistor comes to life in the New York Times-bestselling author's acclaimed graphic novel.
As Adolf Hitler's Nazi party gains strength across Germany, the pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer forms a breakaway church to speak out against the complacency of established political and religious authorities. When the Nazis outlaw the church, he escapes as a fugitive. Struggling to reconcile his faith and the teachings of the Bible with the Nazi Party's evil agenda, Bonhoeffer decides that Hitler must be stopped by any means possible!
In his signature style of interwoven handwritten text and art, John Hendrix tells the true story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a pastor who makes the ultimate sacrifice to help free the German people from oppression during World War II.
