by UtaGPoiger (Author)

Synopsis

In the two decades after World War II, Germans on both sides of the iron curtain fought vehemently over American cultural imports. This title traces how westerns, jeans, jazz, rock 'n' roll, and stars like Marlon Brando or Elvis Presley reached adolescents in both Germanies, who eagerly adopted the different styles.
