| dc.description.abstract | First there was courage; courage is always first. If somebody had to be behind a gun directly fronting on a vast massing of power obscenely sworn to Hitler, then of course that person would be young Alex Bickel. He wouldn't have been able to see any reason why it should be anybody else. And when the mightiest enemy of all, the undefeatable Hitler, arrived and set up his siege, out of season, without warning, bitterly as to time and manner, cutting off all hope, Bickel sat and laughed with his friends, or did what work he could. In between the Hitler of Europe and the Hitler of the universe there was never any faltering from courage. Courage is always first. | |
