Halik Kochanski

Using powerful and often little-known accounts, Halik Kochanski will offer a fascinating examination of the convoluted challenges faced by those prepared to resist the Germans, ordinary people who carried out exceptional acts of defiance. How did small bands of individuals undertake tasks which could lead not just to their own deaths but those of their families and their entire communities? Yet across Nazi-occupied Europe some people decided to resist the Third Reich either through open partisan warfare as in the occupied Soviet Union or through dangerous acts of insurrection in the Netherlands or Norway.
