So instead of 20 links that have SOMETHING to do with the book, I've decided that 10 really good and RELEVANT links is a better way to approach this one.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazism
Wikipedia is usually a good source for general information. This page gives a pretty detailed explanation of Nazism. It includes the history, ideology, economics, along with other general information.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_Germany
This next Wikipedia page goes into much greater detail. It focuses on Nazism in Germany, which is obviously where the book takes place. It adds politics, law, culture and more into the more general page before this link.

This is all about Nazi propaganda. It goes from the 1933 to 1945. It includes a massive variety of things including speeches, anti-Semitic material, and war propaganda, along with much other miscellaneous propaganda.
http://www.scbartoletti.com/
This is simply the website for Susan Campbell Bartoletti. It gives information on the author as well as a list of her books and a way to contact her. It shows a very impressive list of honors as well, which leads me to be curious her other books.
http://www.consciousangels.org/14901/17969.html
This gives information about Helmuth. It is a good summary as well as being quite long. It also has an interesting discussion about courage that fits very well with Helmuth's own form of courage.
http://historyofmormonism.com/2010/03/05/helmuth/
Helmuth was a Mormon, which influenced him greatly in his decisions throughout his life. This is yet another site giving information on Helmuth, but from a Mormon perspective. It's simply interesting to look at if from the religious standpoint as well as a purely historical view.
http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10005208
This is a site that talks about German resistance to Hitler. It was very limited, considering how good the Nazis were at keeping people quiet. It is a look into the few Germans who dared to stand against what they knew was wrong.
http://libcom.org/library/workers-opposition-nazi-germany-tim-mason
This is an article by Time Mason discussing German resistance to the Nazi party. This article specifically targets the working class's opposition to Hitler. It is very detailed and explains exactly how they dealt with things publicly and privately while opposing the Nazis.
http://www.transdiffusion.org/radio/features/hitlers_radio
The secret radio that Helmuth uses was an important part of his finding of the truth. This site gives detailed information on how the Nazis controlled the radio and used it for propaganda. It also discusses how the radio was a tool that Britain and the Soviet Union could use to tell Germans the truth about the war.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_propaganda
Propaganda is obviously massively important in this book. I already gave a very good site with many examples of propaganda as well as information, but this is just a nice Wikipedia version of it. I was mainly interested in looking at the radio section, but it gives a good variety of unique forms of propaganda.
