Join author Ainslie Hepburn for an engaging talk about her book - A Jew Who Defeated Nazism.
Herbert Sulzbach (1894 – 1985) was an influential figure in Britain and Germany who made a remarkable personal contribution to Anglo-German reconciliation following the Second World War. Working with German prisoners of war in British camps that included fanatical Nazis, he guided men of all ranks – including senior officers - to personal, educational, and cultural achievements in preparation for peace and reconciliation. This is a graphic and moving account of a largely untold aspect of the war where the seeds of reconciliation, and a 'New Germany', were fostered by a remarkable and self-deprecating 'ordinary' man.
