Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Robert Uhrig (March 8, 1903 - August 21, 1944) was a German communist and resistance fighter against National Socialism. Born in Leipzig, the son of a metalworker, Uhrig grew up to become a journeyman toolmaker. He joined the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) in 1920 and took several courses at the Marxist Workers' School. From 1929 on, he worked at Osram in Berlin-Moabit and joined the KPD workplace cell. By the end of 1932, The KPD was the third largest party in Germany, with 3,600,000 members and had received some six million votes in the previous election. He took leadership of the cell in 1933. The Reichstag Fire Decree pushed by Adolf Hitler in response to the Reichstag Fire on February 27, 1933 and signed into law by President Paul von Hindenburg withdrew civil liberties and enabled the Nazis, then in key positions in government, to arrest anyone they deemed to be an enemy.
