The history of the transatlantic partnership has, overnight, become highly topical; in fact, since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, it has been invoked in Europe as a key reassurance. In her life of Eric Warburg, Jeanette Erazo Heufelder tells the story of the nephew of the art historian Aby Warburg, whose world-famous library Eric saved from the Nazis. He was a Jew, a banker, a helper of escapees, an intelligence officer in the US Army, a transatlantic bridge builder, and a Cold Warrior, and with the help of the cooperation channels he set up, West German and US social groups were aligned with the West amidst the turmoil of post-war Europe. His life, and that of Aby Warburg's library, tells the story of Europe's twentieth century, the legacy of which continues to inform and inspire the transatlantic partnership today.
