The account of the author's life, spent between Europe and America,
is at the same time an account of his generation, one that came of
age between the two World Wars. Recalling not only circumstances of
his own situation but that of his friends, the author shows how
this generation faced a reality that seemed fragmented, and in
their shared thirst for knowledge and commitment to ideas they
searched for cohesiveness among the glittering, holistic ideologies
and movements of the twenties and thirties. The author's scholarly
work on the German Resistance to Hitler revealed to him those who
maintained dignity and courage in times of peril and despair, which
became for him a life's pursuit. This work is unique in its
thorough inclusion of the postwar decades and its perspective from
a historian eager to rescue the "other" Germany-the Germany of the
righteous rather than the Holocaust murderers.
