This gripping autobiography is at once a heart-pounding adventure story. Radomir Luza's father was a revered army general when the Nazis stormed into Czechoslovakia. After his father went underground to avoid arrest and torture, the nineteen-year-old Radomir spent weeks in a Gestapo prison. Upon his release, he joined his father in hiding. General Luza became the military commander of the Czech resistance, while Radomir secretly helped organize the country's largest resistance network. 'The Hitler Kiss' is a portrait of courage, tenderness, optimism, and sheer survival.
