Publisher's Synopsis

Despite Ludwig Loewe's pivotal role in Germany's pre-WW1 industrial success, only
sparse information on him and his work remains. His "Jewish enterprise" was expropriated
post-1933, falling under Günther Quandt's control, where it stayed post-WW2.
All company records and correspondence subsequently disappeared. However, when
the few remaining information fragments are contextualized, a fuller picture of this
extraordinary man emerges. A man who devoted much to his homeland, only for his
heirs to be exiled and stripped of everything.
