📘 The Jehovah's Witnesses and the Nazis by Sylvie Graffard

"As pacifists and citizens of "Jehovah's Kingdom," the Witnesses refused to swear allegiance to any world government, to contribute in the smallest way to the military, or to stop their active recruiting of converts. Because of their beliefs and their uncompromising integrity, Hitler viewed them as ideological foes of the Third Reich and targeted them for persecution, deportation, and murder.". "The Jehovah's Witnesses and the Nazis is the first history in English to detail in the words of the Witnesses the course of their clash with Hitler and his SS."--BOOK JACKET.

📘 Persecution and Resistance of Jehovah's Witnesses During the Nazi Regime

by Hans Hesse

This book provides a fascinating history of what Jehovah’s witnesses suffered under the Nazi regime. The author’s choice to only include accounts about Jehovah’s witnesses from the firsthand prospective of non-Jehovah’s witnesses prisoners provides a sobering ring of truth concerning the “special treatment” the Nazis reserved for Jehovah’s witnesses. This book also documents how despite their best efforts, including death by firing squad, the Nazis were unable to break these Christians into going against their bible-trained consciences. Pleased be advised that some accounts in this volume are disturbingly graphic in detail!
