Book Synopsis


Trade Review
“This major historical work focuses on the careers of three exemplary journalists, and looks at the evolution of West German journalism and of Hamburg as a journalistic metropolis. Journalists between Hitler and Adenauer reminds us of the enormous influence once exerted by newspapers and magazines and makes an original contribution to our understanding of the roots of the modern Federal Republic.”—David E. Barclay, executive director of the German Studies Association
“Relying on previously unknown sources, this fine book charts the path of three leading journalists before, during, and after the Third Reich. Berghahn reassesses the concept of `inner emigration’ and examines the `gray zones’ between conformity and resistance that each protagonist tried to exploit. He thereby casts new light on the role of journalists in providing moral and political guidance to German statesmen and the public as they confronted the crimes of Nazism.”—James Retallack, University of Toronto
