Review
"Miriam
Gebhardt has uncovered swathes of new evidence relating to the rape of
German women in the US Zone of Occupation. Her book adds a further
dimension to our knowledge of life in Germany in the immediate
aftermath of the war." - Giles MacDonogh, historian and
author
"Miriam Gebhardt's study is not the first that explores the
experiences of circa 860.000 German women, who were raped by Allied
soldiers in the aftermath of the Second World. But it shifts the focus
from the notorious mass rape of Soviet soldiers to the members of the
American, British and French forces and estimates that at least 190.000
German women experienced sexual violence by them. With her excellent
study she thus challenges the common picture of the 'honourable'
Western allied armies."- Karen Hagemann, University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill
"A harrowing and highly recommended work of scholarship."- Times Higher Education Supplement
"A meticulous and fascinating study into the victims of World
War II who are rarely considered, much less written about." - History of War
