A comprehensive survey of the clandestine newspapers, and those who distributed them, produced in an effort to counter Nazi propaganda and maintain morale in enemy-occupied Europe during WWII, despite the horrendous risks involved. Yet the work went on, thwarting German control and even forcing the Nazis to change some of their policies. Writers and publishers too refused to be silenced, and many found lasting fame through clandestine book.
