Download or read book Foreign Shores written by Stuart Crocker and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2010 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreign Shores is the true story of Theodor Terhorst, a former German soldier held as a prisoner-of-war in England. Growing up in a small village in Nazi Germany, Theodor, like many other impressionable boys of his age, was a willing participant in the rallies and events organized by the Hitler Youth.Called up in 1944 at the age of seventeen, he underwent training as a member of the elite parachute regiment before being posted to northern France. Wounded in heavy fighting during the allied invasion of Normandy, Theodor was evacuated to Guernsey in the Channel Islands where, after recovering from his wounds, he was subjected to the horror of gradual starvation. Eventually captured when the islands were liberated, he was shipped back to England as a prisoner-of-war. Weak and emaciated after his ordeal, he was hospitalized and given a special diet to gain weight before being sent to a POW camp in Shropshire.By the end of 1945 with hostilities over, prisoners were allowed to work outside the camps, but many were prevented from returning to Germany in contravention of the Geneva Convention. Theodor was one of those and sent to work as a labourer on a nearby farm where he met and fell in love with the farmer’s eldest daughter.Some years later Theodor returned to his homeland to try and settle down, but his experience was an unhappy one. Convinced that he is resented by many people for his healthy young family, his prosperity and even for the simple fact that he is still alive, he returns to England where he spends the remainder of his life, developing a sense of belonging and love for the land against which he had once fought.
Download or read book Meet Me in Munich written by Moses Wolff and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Munich’s Oktoberfest, held each year since 1810 from late September through the first weekend in October, is one of the most famous events in Germany. It is a beer drinker’s paradise—over the course of sixteen days, more than six million visitors consume nearly two million gallons of specially brewed Oktoberfest beer. For the first-time visitor to the Wies’n (a meadow near Munich’s center dedicated to the festival), Oktoberfest can be a little overwhelming. Fortunately, Moses Wolff hasn’t missed a day of Oktoberfest in years, and he knows the festival like the back of his hand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A theoretical physicist’s exploration of the math and science behind the beer-brewing process. Packed with humor, history, and DIY enthusiasm.” —Seed Magazine Best Beer Book in the United States of America, 2009 Gourmand World Cookbook Awards Ever wonder where the bubbles in your beer came from, which way they are going, and why? Have you considered the physical differences among ales, lambics, and lagers? Do you contemplate your pint? Accomplished homebrewer and physicist Mark Denny has crafted a scientifically sound and witty investigation of the physics and chemistry of beer. He recounts and explains the history of and key technological advances in brewing, provides basic instructions for making your own—including a scientific-yet-accessible account of the changes in appearance during each stage of the process—and looks at the fascinating physical phenomena contained within a pint of beer. Along the way he defines the main concepts and terms involved in the process and shows how you can subject the technical aspects of brewing to scientific analysis. If you’ve ever been curious about how beer is made, why it froths so well, and what makes different types . . . well . . . different, then Froth! is for you. “Froth! earns a solid ‘A’ for bringing science, brewing, and good writing together.” —Beerfestivals.org “Books about beer tend to be either purely descriptive or wholly scientific. Rarely does a book combine the two, much less with genuine wit and charm. Froth! . . . is the exception. It is a great joy to read and contains a wealth of information for a wide audience . . . Highly recommended.” —Choice
Book Synopsis Landmarks in the German Novel by : Peter Hutchinson
Download or read book Landmarks in the German Novel written by Peter Hutchinson and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a large pool of German novelists in whose oeuvre we may look for works of landmark significance, and at certain periods of its history German fiction is particularly rich. Yet although the novel begins to assert itself in the seventeenth century, we have to wait until the late eighteenth, and Goethe's first major prose work, Werther, to see it truly rise to the level of other genres. The thirteen novels featured in this collection have all proved milestones in the development of the form, and there is heavy prominence given to works by Goethe himself and by Thomas Mann. Through these, as well as those by such figures as Kafka, Hesse, and Günter Grass, we can trace the development of the novel to its far more 'self-conscious' form, ranging through the social studies of the nineteenth to works which treat a variety of intellectual, psychological and philosophical issues in the twentieth. A second volume will cover landmarks published between 1959 and the present day. These essays, all by specialists in the relevant field, were originally delivered as lectures in the University of Cambridge.
Book Synopsis A Nation Fermented by : Robert Shea Terrell
Download or read book A Nation Fermented written by Robert Shea Terrell and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-12-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did beer become one of the central commodities associated with the German nation? How did a little-known provincial production standard DS the Reinheitsgebot, or Beer Purity Law DS become a pillar of national consumer sentiments? How did the jovial, beer-drinking German become a fixture in the global imagination? While the connection between beer and Germany seems self-evident, A Nation Fermented reveals how it was produced through a strange brew of regional commercial and political pressures. Spanning from the late nineteenth century to the last decades of the twentieth, A Nation Fermented argues that the economic, regulatory, and cultural weight of Bavaria shaped the German nation in profound ways. Drawing on sources from over a dozen archives and repositories, Terrell weaves together subjects ranging from tax law to advertising, public health to European integration, and agriculture to global stereotypes. Offering a history of the Germany that Bavaria made over the twentieth century, A Nation Fermented both eschews sharp temporal divisions and forgoes conventional narratives centered on Prussia, Berlin, or the Rhineland. In so doing, Terrell offers a fresh take on the importance of provincial influences and the role of commodities and commerce in shaping the nation.

Book Synopsis The 1972 Munich Olympics and the Making of Modern Germany by : Kay Schiller

This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1972 Munich Olympics—remembered almost exclusively for the devastating terrorist attack on the Israeli team—were intended to showcase the New Germany and replace lingering memories of the Third Reich. That hope was all but obliterated in the early hours of September 5, when gun-wielding Palestinians murdered 11 members of the Israeli team. In the first cultural and political history of the Munich Olympics, Kay Schiller and Christopher Young set these Games into both the context of 1972 and the history of the modern Olympiad. Delving into newly available documents, Schiller and Young chronicle the impact of the Munich Games on West German society.
