Saturday University: "... but he likes to drink their wines"

Franco-German wine stories from the 18th to the 21st century A privy councillor from Frankfurt knows what a real German man feels, a Prussian prince receives mail from the fatherland of wine, a French friend of Clara Schumann sets up a military hospital in Berlin, a Jewish banker and a Bremen wine merchant buy châteaux, a German emperor can't stop drinking champagne, and a mayor from the Palatinate empties three glasses of wine to great applause in Brussels. Four years later, he is shot by a private soldier. Then his brother writes about the devastation of earlier wars: The long 19th century as a history of Franco-German entanglements, told through the medium of wine.
