Going to be @The_Waterfront tomorrow for the #Swansea book fair, with #books on Edgar Evans, unsung #WW2 heroes 'Taffy' Bowen & Joan Curran, Ted Owens, a few copies of Charlie Faulkner memoir and Aberfan, plus #DefyingHitler & #ShadowWarriors. Come along and say hello!

Inspired by @nickfshort's travels through the history of Munich, here are some photos I took while working on a book called #DefyingHitler - they relate to the very best of us: the White Rose.
Hans & Sophie Scholl lived in rooms at the rear of this building before their deaths.
Kurt Gerstein was the hardest life to write about in #DefyingHitler. Thought hard about whether to include him. The rise of Holocaust denial persuaded me it had to be done as I explain the acknowledgements.
@JonKilkade His story is very unique and odd.
Thank you @Jose_Pagliery I think that’s why the book struck such a nerve. I appreciate you giving it a mention. #DefyingHitler
For those concerned about encroaching authoritarianism, this book by @gregjlewis is particularly relevant now.
The meticulously detailed accounts make one thing clear: the high cost of waiting too long to resist tyranny.
It's an excellent read.
Lovely to see @bookauthority list #DefyingHitler as one of the best books "of all time" on Nazi Germany. "This remarkable account illuminates [the resisters'] struggles, yielding an accessible narrative history with the pace & excitement of a thriller."

The good people @Shepherd_books asked me to suggest some of the best books on the Germans who resisted the Nazis. Here’s my list, incl @FXMC1957 among others. Apologies to the great ones I left out.

Our #WalesAndTheWorld lead author @gregjlewis has written all sorts of non-fiction for adults including #DefyingHitler about the Germans who defied Hitler. The book was first published in the US but has become popular in India thanks to lovely reviews like this. 📚

Lovely review of #DefyingHitler - thank you, Naishadh and @HistoryCredible. #antinazi #history @penguinrandom @DuttonBooks #WW2
#DefyingHitler describes the society in Nazi Germany which Hitler created to shut down all criticism and resistance - and brings to life those who fought back.
Quick quiz: who can identify the two locations in the photos? #WW2 @gregjlewis #widerstand #books @DuttonBooks
The stories of the Germans who defied the Nazis.
They came from different walks of life - but most shared the same terrible fate.

.@USATODAY & @newyorkpost said #DefyingHitler was stirring & fascinating. @kershaw_alex said it was "terrifying & timely".
This cat says it was..."tasty".
Not a reaction I expected. But a writer is overjoyed with any positive feedback.

Made it. Writing a synopsis for US non fiction market can be a lot of work but this one is ready to go.
It’s a book I first wanted to write in 2008 & have been researching off and on ever since.
Wish me luck.

That thread on the B-17 crew, the fuel tank ‘miracle’, & the Czech forced labourer got turned into an article for @Hush_Kit.

The B-17 ‘miracle’: Defying Hitler with sabotage! https://t.co/ah8iYmoh0O
Hopefully I’ll get the airmen book out in next year or two. Current book #DefyingHitler out now on anti-Nazis if that is of interest. @DuttonBooks
Lots of stories of courage and immense sacrifice.
@gregjlewis When will you have more info on the project ! Love this history
I write quite a lot about the Berlin Jews who carried out sabotage in the Siemens factory in #DefyingHitler
