Description (What the record is about)
-
Prince Hubertus LOWENSTEIN. This Austro-German Prince left Germany for Britain when Hitler came to power. An active (if eccentric) anti-Nazi anxious to build a Germany free from National Socialism, his personal ambition was said to be no less than the German throne. He moved to the USA in 1939 from where during the war he was in contact with Jurgen KUCZYNSKI, the Soviet agent who introduced Klaus FUCHS to espionage, though no incriminating construction was put on their relationship
