Defiance: A Life Behind Enemy Lines is a gripping autobiography and a detailed account of the anti-Nazi movement. Henry Lebrecht recounts his experiences from age ten to twenty-two, surviving the duration of the Nazi empire. Living in Berlin as a fugitive, Lebrecht and his family practiced total disobedience to survive a criminal government. This first volume describes the constant threat of arrest and the narrow escapes required to evade the Gestapo.

The narrative focuses on the struggle for food and shelter while facing relentless aerial bombardments from Allied forces. Lebrecht highlights the courage of fellow citizens who risked their lives to oppose Nazi law. This memoir provides a firsthand perspective on the tension of living behind enemy lines during World War II. It is a stark look at perseverance and survival amidst the ruins of Berlin.
