Tetens, T. H. The New Germany and the Old Nazis. New York: Random House, 1961,
A grim picture of Germany in the 1950s, where Nazi sympathies linger just under the surface and the line between war criminals and government ministers is arbitrary. Tetens argues that Adenauer's fear for the decline of the CDU led him to reach out to the right, cover-up his advisors' past, and pressure the Americans and British for lenience towards war criminals. With journalistic style and the zeal of an expose Tetens warns about German society. Interesting today less for its shock value than for its eyewitness quality, which reminds us that Germany did not suddenly change in 1945, nor did the effects of Nazi ideology simply disappear when the propaganda stopped. **Deutsches Konto vorhanden.

One Hundred Influential American Books Printed Before 1900: Catalogue and Addresses. Exhibition at The Grolier Club April Eighteenth - June Sixteenth MCMXLVI. New York: The Grolier Club, 1947. Mansfield Centre, CT: Martino Publishing, 2001. 139 pp. Cloth. New. * The Grolier Club set as a goal the identification and establishment of the hundred most influential American books published before 1900. To this end it set up a committee of three book-collectors. The books selected influenced not only the life of culture of the U.S., but the form of government and the literature of foreign lands. For each book the Grolier Club provides a bibliographical description, and a brief description explaining the importance of the title. From The Constitution to the Boston Cook Book, from The Federalist to Huckleberry Finn, these books comprise the high spots of book collecting for Americans. The Grolier Club catalogue will remain a standard work so long as this canon of American literature continues to reign. Besterman 836.
