Review: A Stand Against Tyranny: Norways Physicians and the Nazis

User Review  - Leif - Goodreads

Although the book is supposed to cover the resistance organized by Norwegian medical doctors during World War II, it inevitably covers broader ground. Although it's a bit of hagiography, the historical research is very thorough. Read full review
