Praises for newly published book on Bonhoeffer's last days by Dr John McCabe

VHI Research Associate Rev Dr John McCabe's new book Dietrich Bonhoeffer—The Last Eight Days: The Untold Story of the Journey to Flossenbürg (Baylor University Press, 2024) is receiving much attention and is now available to pre-order.

With unprecedented historical accuracy, McCabe tells the full story of Bonhoeffer’s final week. Adding more substance, color, and depth to a previously monochrome narrative, the book aims to provide a better framework from within which to understand more fully the witness and contribution of Dietrich Bonhoeffer. McCabe proposes that a richer appreciation of the resisting spirit of Bonhoeffer (and others) may further study of, and engagement with, the Bonhoeffer Corpus.

The German edition will be published by Gütersloher Verlagshaus, Penguin RandomHouse, Germany, in February 2025.
