The book presents stories of resistance to the Ludaki regime (in wartime Slovakia) that open the door to an unexplored world of small and great heroic deeds of ordinary people. Slovak scholars and publicists write about more and less well-known personalities who were not afraid to stand up to Tiso, the Guards, or their own fears. About individuals who had the strength, determination and courage to act 'behind Tiso's back'. You will read about students who did not give in to state propaganda, about women who boycotted abortion policy, about diplomats who disobeyed their superiors, about soldiers who rebelled against the Ludaki Army commanders, about families who helped Allied pilots despite the threat, and about women and men who risked their lives fighting the regime with a gun in their hands. As a bonus, the book includes text about Jozef Tiso and his interactions with the Jewish community-from childhood friends and classmates, to donors and superiors, to the doctors and lawyers with whom his life was intertwined.
