(Ebook) Safehaven: The Allied Pursuit of Nazi Assets Abroad by Martin Lorenz-meyer ISBN 9780826217196, 0826217192

As Germany faced inevitable defeat in World War II, the Allies became concerned that the Nazis would attempt to hide their assets in neutral countries in order to revive their cause in later years. To address this danger, the United States, along with Britain and France as reluctant partners, started the Safehaven program. In this first detailed historical study of Safehaven in English, Martin Lorenz-Meyer focuses on policies of the Allies, revealing their disagreements about the program and addressing the historical roots of a problem that over decades the Cold War had successfully buried. As America continues to face foreign-policy dilemmas regarding trade with enemies and issues of neutrality, Safehaven offers an illuminating case history that sheds new light on current affairs.
