Description & Specifications

In 1945, Germany was a country in ruins. Large masses of the population were desperate, homeless, bombed, and on the move. Refugees were arriving in the West, while soldiers were returning home, often marking the villages they passed through with shades of violence. Politically, the country was weakened, divided into occupation zones. While Britain and America were reluctant to repeat the extremely burdensome reparations demands of World War I, Russia sought revenge, emptying their zone of everything from railway lines to toilet bowls.

After the Reich is the first history to provide the complete picture of Germany's bitter journey to reconstruction. Giles Macdonogh, in his exceptional way, records the diverse experiences of all those involved in the German "dance." The narrative approach, centered on humans, reveals shocking truths about how people continued to behave towards each other, even outside the boundaries of war. It is a critical lesson for our times.
