This is a memoir about the experiences of Martha Dodd (1908-1990) in Nazi Germany. Miss Dodd was the daughter of William Edward Dodd, the U.S. Ambassador to Germany from 1933 to 1937, just before the Second World War.
=
Miss Dodd writes that the president, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, had no takers for the post of US Ambassador to Germany, and so he chose Mr. Dodd, a mild-mannered academic, who had studied in Germany, was fluent in German language and literature, and was retiring from his post at the University of Chicago. Dodd thought that going to the land he loved would be the perfect backdrop to his finally completing that multi-volume history he'd been putting off for years!
=
Miss Dodd went to Berlin with her father, mother and brother in 1933, and stayed there until her father resigned his post in 1937, partly for health reasons, partly because of increased conflict with the State Department, and partly because of his increasing unease with the Nazi regime.
