Book Reviews of At the Heart of the White Rose: Letters and Diaries of Hans and Sophie Scholl
Book Review: Footnotes are valuable
Summary: 4 Stars
Inge Jens has done a masterful job with the material she was given. A careful read notes the many gaps -- it's not that Hans and Sophie Scholl did not write anything during the gaps, it is more a matter that Dr. Jens was not allowed access to everything in the Scholl archives.The book is worthwhile for the tiny glimpse it provides into the reality of the Scholl world, though the Aicher-Scholl censorship fairly obscures the remaining members of the White Rose.
Most of all, the book is worth reading because of Inge Jens' excellent research. Her footnotes provide information you won't find elsewhere.
