Seller Description
In this book you will find something about German history, sports, art, music, literature, customs, and food-and much about the German people. Of German Ways measures the pulse of German life in both Germany and America and describes the great political and cultural contributions to American life of the fifty million descendants of German immigrants. This entertaining and informative volume is ideal for adults interested in their German background, for young people who want to acquire a sense of ethnic heritage; and for tourists who would like a more in-depth view of Germany and Germans than a guidebook provides. LaVern Rippley grew up in a Wisconsin German-American community. He was a Fulbright Fellow at the University of Munich and has visited Germany many times. After teaching at Ohio Wesleyan University he became Chairman of the German Department at St. Olaf College.
