Description
“Bleeding Germany Dry: (signed copy) The Aftermath of World War II from the German Perspective” by Claus Nordbruch is a comprehensive examination of the adversities faced by Germany and its people following World War II.
Published in 2012, this 560-page work delves into the extensive looting of cultural assets, theft of patents, the abduction of scientists, skilled workers by Allied forces and the unadulterated depictions of the premeditated mass atrocities connected with expulsion and deportation of German people, as well as the mass rape of German women and girls, and the Allied campaigns of methodical plunder throughout Germany..
Nordbruch sheds light on the atrocities and crimes committed against Germans during the post-war period, emphasising the lack of restitution and compensation for the millions who suffered imprisonment, torture, and forced labour. The author critically assesses the ongoing impact of these actions on contemporary policies in Berlin and Vienna, arguing that the Allied nations continue to exert a form of warfare against Germany, now manifested through political and economic means rather than military force.
This meticulously researched book challenges prevailing historical narratives and advocates for a reevaluation of the treatment of Germany in the aftermath of the war.
