An enormous contest was playing out in the 1960s in post-World War II Germany to determine if the capitalism and freedom of the west or the communism and totalitarianism of East Germany would win out as the favored form of government. Frank Lyons lived and worked in West Germany during part of this epic time. In a readable, insightful, and amusing manner, Lyons weaves together his observations about ongoing historical events, the developing Cold War, his professional work, and raising his young family. He does not avoid covering the infamous behavior of the Nazis, the Red Army, and others during and after the war. Heidelberg Days 1964-1968 also reflects back on how it all turned out a half century later. Lyons' unique and personal writing style about the history of postwar Germany and the ordinary lives of people living there will make first-time visitors to Germany feel like they are revisiting their home towns.
