MixedFinancial Times (UK)\"... untapped family sources...help Donner evoke Mildred well, including humanising details such as the occasional problems with her marriage. That said, this is far from a conventional history book. The history of the Third Reich takes up a high proportion of the text—there are whole chapters in which Mildred does not appear. The result is certainly a lively read but one that occasionally stumbles over historical detail and is more categorical about some events than most historians would be. We should nonetheless be grateful that Mildred Harnack has received proper recognition at last, although this is unlikely to prove the last word.
