From American heiress to Nazi resistance fighter, Muriel White's extraordinary journey reveals how one woman's privilege became her weapon against tyranny. "This compelling tale traces the intricately intertwined history of American high society with European nobility in the face of rising Nazism. A haunting saga of family in the turmoil and tragedy of the twentieth century."-Dina Gold, author of Stolen Legacy Drawing from never-before-published memoirs and declassified CIA documents, "The Countess and the Nazis" unveils the remarkable true story of a woman who traded America's Gilded Age society for a title in Prussia's aristocracy-only to find herself making the ultimate sacrifice to protect her children from Hitler's regime. As the daughter of one of America's most respected diplomats and the wife of a Prussian count, Muriel White Seherr-Thoss moved effortlessly through Europe's royal courts until the Nazi shadow fell across her adopted homeland. When faced with evil, she chose resistance over privilege:
- Leveraged her aristocratic connections to secure escape routes for Jewish families
- Witnessed the Italian Fascist invasion of Albania while mentoring the future Queen Geraldine
- Sacrificed everything to keep her sons from being conscripted into Hitler's army
- Defied the Gestapo even as they held her virtually prisoner in her own country
