Letters From Europe And Africa, 1924-1926

In the winter of 1924, two teenagers from the American Midwest set sail for Europe, bound for Hamburg, Germany where they would live with relatives and go to school. Their mother kept all the letters and postcards they wrote home and years later transcribed and copied them. This is a collection of all their letters, illustrated with their own photographs and postcards they bought while abroad. It's an intimate look at Weimar-era Germany from the perspective of two curious and observant young men. In addition to detailed descriptions of everyday life with their extended family in Hamburg, the letters also describe travels around Germany, and one of the brothers' additional visit to Casablanca, in French-ruled Morocco.
