The author's research included interviews with more than 60 Germans who were active in the Confessing Church.Victoria Barnett describes the dramatic struggle between Nazism and the German Confessing Church --- a group of outraged Christians who sought to establish a church untainted by Nazi ideology. For this remarkable book, Barnett interviewed more than sixty Germans who were active in the Confessing Church. She quotes liberally from their frank, unvarnished testimony, using rich historical and archival material to frame their stories. For the Soul of the People vividly portrays a church divided between those who compromised with Nazism and those who eventually tried to overthrow it.Church and stateGermanyHistory1933-1945GermanyChurch history1933-1945Electronic books.lcshChurch and stateHistory280.4094309043Barnett Victoria1950-950225StDuBDSUkPrAHLSUkPrAHLSBOOK9910455760203321For the soul of the people2148266UNINA
