In this comprehensive work, Manfred Jonas ably traces German-American relations from the days of Frederick the Great to those of Willy Brandt.. Jonas has drawn on a host of repositories, and his extensive bibliographical essay shows real familiarity with both American and German sources. The result: a work sweeping in scope, thorough in research, balanced in conclusions.... Many students of diplomatic history will profit from this fine volume. This is a first-rate diplomatic history of the old-fashioned kind. Professor Jonas knows the sources, understands the clerkish mentality, and has a certain sympathy for bureaucrats of all hues. Jonas has simplified an extraordinary amount of complicated material so that general readers as well as college students will be easily able to comprehend his study.
In this clearly written and scrupulously researched book, Manfred Jonas tells the story of relations between the two countries from America's Declaration of Independence in 1776 to the Nixon administration's recognition of the German Democratic Republic in 1973.
