[Documents on the German resistance group"Onkel Emi"]
1 electronic resource (84 pages)
The file contains various documents on German resistance during World War 2 and more specifically on the resistance group “Onkel Emil”. It consists of a correspondence between the German lawyer Ludwig Ruge and his acquaintances in which he asks for sources on the German underground, as well as of member lists of “Onkel Emil”. However, the largest part of the file is a typewritten chapter of a book by Ruth Andreas-Friedrich, a key member of the group. The book was published in 1947 under the title of “Der Schattenmann” . There, she describes in detail the struggle of living through the last months of war and the measures “Onkel Emil” took to help Jewish and political refugees. Some of the pages, especially the handwritten ones, are in bad condition and could therefore be hard to read.
