American Bund: German American leader of US nazi party
Re: American Bund: German American leader of US nazi party
Good article...the two best books on the Bund (not mentioned by the article) are Sander Diamond's "The Nazi Movement in the United States 1924-1941" and Scott Freeland's "They Too Were Americans". Freeland's book is a treasure trove of photographs and artifacts...if you are interested in the Bund, get the book before it becomes unaffordable.
I once visited Yorkville to see if there were any traces of a German community left... it appears all gone, save for maybe a couple of German pub / restaurants on the outskirts.
