About This Book

An American academic responds to a German correspondent's plea defending his nation's wartime actions, disputing claims that U.S. opinion is shaped by corrupt or government-controlled newspapers, contrasting unfettered American press freedom with censorship and suppression abroad, noting the correspondent's emotional perspective, explaining reasons for disagreement over responsibility and methods of warfare, and urging patient, candid exchange to promote mutual understanding.
