John Cudahy – författare

John Cudahy was an American diplomat who served in the years leading up to World War II as United States ambassador to Poland and Belgium, and as United States minister to Luxembourg and the Irish Free State. He was forced to leave his post in Luxembourg after Germany occupied this country and Belgium in May 1940 and the nations set up governments-in-exile. He was a close friend of King Leopold III and publicly denounced Britain, France and the U.S. for a failure to plan an adequate defense. This personal narrative shares many insights on his time in Europe and is a fully detailed account of what happened here and there behind closed doors.
