A German Officer in Occupied Paris: The War Journals, 1941-1945

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I wish to express my deep gratitude to Jennifer Crewe and Marielle Poss of Columbia University Press for their expert guidance and hard work on this book. Roland Knappe of the Klett Verlag was also very helpful. Eliah Bures, Joana von de Loecht, and Heath Pearson all read earlier versions of my introduction and made necessary corrections and expert suggestions for improvement. Finally, my thanks to the talented translators of these journals, who have performed a deep and welcome service to scholarship and world literature by making Jünger’s Second World War journals available to all readers in the wider English-speaking world.
