Gives insight into the evolution of Schumacher's philosophy and character while providing the necessary historical details and context. The author is his daughter and while Ms.Wood's love for her Dad is evident throughout, she does not appear to treat him with kid gloves. Her report of Fritz's struggles to understand his family's tacit support for Hitler and the Nazi's was an interesting revelation. According to Ms. Wood, Fritz progressed from atheism early on to membership in the Roman Catholic Church toward the end of his life. Small sticker on dj spine otherwise clean and tight.
