In the final autumn of World War II, Helmuth James von Moltke was awaiting trial for his leading role in the Kreisau Circle, one of the most important German resistance groups against the Nazis. At Berlin's Tegel Prison, the chaplain was Harald Poelchau, a friend and coconspirator of Helmuth and his wife, Freya.

As collected here, these letters are a profoundly personal record of the couple's fortitude in the face of fascism.
