New Release From Princeton University Press – Reluctant Accomplice

[Jim Aikens]

Princeton University Press just released Reluctant Accomplice: A Wehrmacht Soldier's Letters From The Eastern Front. The synopsis as follows:

Reluctant Accomplice is a volume of the wartime letters of Dr. Konrad Jarausch, a German high-school teacher of religion and history who served in a reserve battalion of Hitler's army in Poland and Russia, where he died of typhoid in 1942. He wrote most of these letters to his wife, Elisabeth. His son, acclaimed German historian Konrad H. Jarausch, brings them together here to tell the gripping story of a patriotic soldier of the Third Reich who, through witnessing its atrocities in the East, begins to doubt the war's moral legitimacy.
