Letters to the Scholl family Hannelore Nussbaum recently published a book with short stories in German language. Hannelore was born and raised in Ulm. Her uncle Fred knew the Scholl family very well, but in 1943 it was dangerous to be known having friendly relations with the Scholl family. Still, Fred kept supporting the family and even asked a niece to bring some of his letters to the family next door. Stefan.
