- Summary
- "This is an up-to-date, informed survey of what has happened, and why it has happened, in Germany since the war [World War II] ... The author discusses the leading personalities of the new Germany--Adenauer and the late Kurt Schumacher and their associates, and such men as Generals Remer and Ramcke, who are the spearheads of the back-to-Hitler movement. He gives accounts of his relations with Eisenhower, Clay, McCloy and other U.S. officials and sharply criticizes many of their decisions and policies. He gives a first-hand description of the process by which nationalistic and Nazi elements have taken over the German press and political parties in spite of the good intentions of the Bonn government ... Our Love Affair With Germany should be a must book for military and government officials and serious students of world affairs ... Hans Habe ... was with the U.S. Military Intelligence when our armies entered Germany, and played an important part in the attempt to reestablish a democratic press during the occupation."--Jacket.
