Written in 1958, then translated and issued in English in 1965. Interesting that there is an introduction by Col. Wendell Fertig US Army Retired. Fertig was in the Army in the Philippines and was trapped on Mindanao in WW II when he organized the Philippinoes into a resistance. Fertig awarded himself a higher rank in WW II to better work with the natives, unfortunately, this annoyed Gen McArther, and he was very cool to Fertig in WW II.
The book is obviously dated as it was written in 1958, which is now 56 years ago. The book is written around a condition like WW II, where Switzerland would be attacked and overrun in part or in whole, and the war continued, and the Swiss could expect some relief at some time in the future.
He talks about guns, and points out that almost all Swiss homes have guns, and that the people would give them to a resistance as the occupier would confiscate them all, or kill people found with guns. It should be noted that the Swiss now and for decades have their army guns at home if in the reserve, or there former army guns if they have retired from the reserves. The Army rifles would be the equivalent of the US M-16, with a fully automatic capability. This is about what they could to to discomfort the enemy.
I liked the way he finished the book: "We must and will win this battle since each Swiss male and female in particular believe in the innermost part of their hearts - even if they are too shy and sober in everyday life to admit or even to speak about it - in the old and yet very up-to-date saying: "Death rather than slavery!"
Anyone interested in guerilla warfare by a European country may find this book interesting.
Major H.Von Dach's "Total Resistance" is a 175-page instruction book filled with information on setting up and operating an insurgency. The copywright is 1965, but is built on an earlier work from 1958.
Amost all other works on insurgency deal with handling thwarting them when the danger is to you, your unit or your country. Total Resistance however, details the building of an insurgency, from the nuts and bolts of creating an insurgant unit, it's security techniques, along with general instructions on some types of saboteur actions against an enemy.
In a long-ago life, I trained insurgents for military operations against some of America's enemies at the time. Von Dach book by no means covers it all, but it gives the reader many of the ground work starting points to building a successful insurgency operation.

While it is dated material as put forward by previous reviews, I still suggest that a major portion of this manual is germane. Granted, Technology has eclipsed a lot of the tactics that worked well in the late 1950's: computers, cell phones, night vision, FLIR, and a whole host of other advancements will have to be blended in by the reader as to whether certain concepts taught in this manual would need to be modified accordingly. Of course, the manual is Swiss in origin, and uses many examples that would suit its original audience best, these lessons can easily be adapted to other environments. I too found the illustrations hard to read, and the photographic images are pretty tough to make out, but using a magnifying glass and re-reading accompanying text will usually yield understanding. I think you will enjoy this one!
