About the author

Under Konrad Adenauer, first chancellor of West Germany from 1949 to 1963, the country began economic reconstruction and joined north Atlantic treaty organization and the European Economic Community, an organization, established in 1957 to reduce tariff barriers and to promote trade among the countries of Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, France, Italy, and West Germany, the original members of the later European Community.

Konrad Hermann Josef Adenauer served as chairman of the Christian Democratic Union from 1950 to 1966. He, the oldest ever, began his first ministry at the age of 73 years and left at 87 years of age.

Reviews

[Matthew Young · Rating 5 out of 5]

Intricate and fufilling insight into the spindles and wheels in the brain of the 20th centurys finest statesman. Father of the EU, saviour of Germany, Adenauer is practically unknown outside of Germany. Meanwhile billions get off to Hitler in spasms of adulating hatred and admiration, mostly hatred. Ignore Mein Kampf. Ignore Kissinger and Merkel. This is the mind you want to emulate.
