The Aftermath

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

The Aftermath by Harald Jähner

I cannot write a full review of this book yet, as I just started it. But two chapters in and I cannot put the book down. The prekude alone sucked me in.

The book details the post war years of 1945 to 1955 in Germany. It deals with the rebuilding, the economic and cultural changes, and even the social lives and conditions of life in the immediate post war years.

So far it is an excellent read.

I can recommend "A Village in the Third Reich" by Julia Boyd too:

looks great, more time should be given to this sort of subject.

Looks interesting. I read "Postwar: A History of Europe since 1945" by Tony Judt which goes into a lot of academic detail. He uses words I never knew existed.
