Sophie Scholl and the White Rose by Jud Newborn and Annette Dumbach
(ISBN-13: 978-1851685363). This book is available as a paperback and as an eBook.

Today, in an aging society, we tend to look at younger people in their 20s and say "wait for them to grow up" or "well you can't expect much yet. They are still young." BUT in 1943 a group of people in their early 20s laid their lives on the line to make a difference in Hitler's Germany.

If you are not familiar with the story of The White Rose, or of the writings of Sophie Scholl, her brother Hans, their close friend Christoph Probst then you, my friends, have missed out.
