The Plot to Kill Hitler: Dietrich Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Spy, Unlikely Hero by Patricia McCormick
4.0
Required Reading: The Plot To Kill Hitler by Patricia McCormick
Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a young man who wanted to nothing more than a simple life of a pastor. He loved discussing the Bible, helping others and teaching the youth. He wanted to share the love of God. There was only one problem; Bonhoeffer was living during the rise of the Nazi party. Now he must struggle with his conscious. Does he remain a man dedicated to the Church, or does he speak out against what he knows is right, even if it means going against his peaceful beliefs?
This was such an interesting story. I had never heard of this man before. He lived such an incredible life in such a short period of time. It does move pretty quickly, which is good and bad. It doesn’t go into great detail but it keeps you interested. Very clean as far as language. Obviously it’s during the rise of Hitler so there is some scary parts of history, but never into great detail. Mostly it just talks of Bonhoeffer doing what he thought was right. Great book that I would recommend to anyone interested in WWII or biographies.
