Bibliography. Index. From the author's website: "Jane Pejsa has written a number of impressive books in the course of her career. A substantial Bush Foundation Award enabled her to research and write Matriarch of Conspiracy, Ruth von Kleist 1867-1945, which won both the Minnesota Book Award for Best Biography and the Midwest Independent Publishers' Award for Best Book Overall. The book has since appeared in Japanese, German, and most recently in a Polish edition, for which she has received the coveted Zloty Ekslibris award in Poland. Her first book, The Molineux Affair, was finalist for the Edgar Allan Poe Award, as Best True Crime, presented by the Mystery Writers of America. Both Gratia Countryman, Her Life, Her Loves, and Her Library and Romanoff, Prince of Rogues were finalists for the Minnesota Book Award, Best Biography. Romanoff, Prince of Rogues has recently been under a film option. The Life of Emily Peake, Voice of the Ojibwe, was written under a grant from the Minnesota Historical Society. This tender biography chronicles the trials and triumphs of the Ojibwe in Midwest America. In her recent book The Final Encounter, Rommel, Patton, and Zhukov, Jane Pejsa broke ranks with her earlier books by creating a fictional encounter among three Word War II giants. Historical fiction may be its genre, but through this device the lives, the loves, and the tragedies of these three star-crossed men come through as if in Technicolor. Jane Pejsa's newly published book, A Remarkable Journey into the Heart of Europe weaves travelogue, memoir, and European history into a seamless robe stretching across Poland and Germany, including events known intimately by the author through her extensive travels and associations. Ms. Pejsa is a graduate of Carleton College, magna cum laude, and a member of the Phi Beta Kappa Society. She is recipient of Carleton's Outstanding Alumni Award. After a lifetime in Minneapolis, Ms. Pejsa spent a number of years in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, recently returning full time to Minneapolis." From Wikipedia: "Dietrich Bonhoeffer (February 4, 1906 April 9, 1945) was a German Lutheran pastor, theologian, anti-Nazi dissident, and founding member of the Confessing Church. His writings on Christianity's role in the secular world have become widely influential, and his book The Cost of Discipleship became a modern classic. Apart from his theological writings, Bonhoeffer became known for his staunch resistance to the Nazi dictatorship, including vocal opposition to Hitler's euthanasia program and genocidal persecution of the Jews. Involved with the plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler by members of the Abwehr (the German Military Intelligence Office), Bonhoeffer was arrested in April 1943 by the Gestapo, imprisoned at Tegel prison for one and a half years, and then in a Nazi concentration camp, and after a very brief, biased trial with other plotters as the Nazi regime collapsed, executed by hanging on April 9, 1945, just two weeks before Allied forces liberated the camp and three weeks before Hitler's suicide.".
