Aims and Scope
George Wronkow worked as a journalist with the Mosse publishing house in Berlin in the 1920s and 30s; in the Spring of 1933 he had to leave Germany and fled first to Denmark and then to France, before emigrating to the USA in 1941. In his autobiography he presents a poignant account not only of his own life but of contemporary political developments from the Second Empire to the Nazi regime. He paints an impressive picture of his life in exile in Paris, where among other things he worked for the Pariser Tageblatt and as a radio journalist.
