Description
The British occupation of Germany, 1945-49, is a story often overlooked in history. This book tells the untold story of the people who were there, from the civilians who worked to rebuild a nation to the military personnel who found themselves on the front line of the Cold War.
Using a range of source materials, including newspaper reports, declassified documents, and interviews with veterans, Daniel Cowling presents a vivid narrative of the four years of the British occupation. He explores the day-to-day experiences of those who worked for the Control Commission for Germany, and how the tensions between East and West shaped the course of European history.
This book offers a fresh perspective on a pivotal period in modern history, shedding new light on the complex and often fraught relationship between Britain and Germany in the aftermath of World War II.
