Lili Marlene - The Soldiers' Song of World War II (Hardcover)

"Lili Marlene," the unlikely anthem of World War II, cut across
front lines and ideological divides, uniting soldiers across the
globe. This love song, telling the story of a young woman waiting
for her lover to return from the battlefield, began as a poem
written by a German solider during World War I. The soldier-poet's
words found their way to Berlin's decadent cabaret scene in the
1930s, where they were set to music by one of Hitler's favored
composers. The song's singer, however, soon found herself torn
between her desire for fame and a personal hatred of the Nazi
regime. In a gripping and suspenseful narrative, the three artists'
remarkable stories of arrests and close calls intertwine with the
recollections of soldiers on all sides who fought their way through
deserts and towns, seeking solace and finding hope in "Lili
Marlene."
