Notes from a Wayfarer The Autobiography of Helmut Thielicke

Helmut Thielicke was one of the most read and most listened to theologians of our time. In Notes From a Wayfarer, written shortly after his 75th birthday, Thielicke sets forth his memoirs from a long and full life. Without pretense or self-promotion, Thielicke introduces us to the figures whom he counted among his friends and acquaintances: Karl Barth, Konrad Adenauer, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Dwight Eisenhower, Helmut Kohl, and Jimmy Carter. Thielicke was, moreover, a witness to many of the most significant events of our century; his life history is interwoven with the Kaiser period, the Weimar Republic, the rise of the Third Reich, a divided Germany, and the tumultuous 60s. From the perspective of this single life we are afforded a broad and clear vision of the moments that have shaped the generation leading us into the 21st century.Thielicke, Helmut is the author of 'Notes from a Wayfarer The Autobiography of Helmut Thielicke' with ISBN 9781557787088 and ISBN 1557787085.
