But journalist Evi Kurz from Furth, the Kissingers' home town in southern Germany, proposed a family portrait and eventually won the trust of both brothers. This is the story of two Americans of German-Jewish descent: one of them a key figure in Cold War diplomacy and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, the other a top businessman - two lives which are exemplars of the American dream.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Henry was born in 1923 and Walter in 1924 the Kissingers had for decades been part of a flourishing Jewish midde class in Furth, a market town in northern Bavaria. Evi Kurz describes the gradual but remorseless destruction of this community in the 1930s; the Kissinger family's decision to flee to London and then New York in 1938; the war years in America; and the hugely successful careers in postwar America of both brothers, who always remembered their home and roots in a small German town.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orion Publishing Group, Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47125140144368,"sku":"9780297856924","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780297856924_p0.jpg?v=1763682824","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780297856924","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
