Right from the start, I apologize for every mistake that sneaked into the American when translating. We are just a small German publisher and do not have the financial means of paying professional translators. I haven’t been doing anything to this extraordinary story for over 10 years until I decided to completely revise my book in June 2024. One month later, after the soccer team VFL Osnabrück was relegated again. Many thanks to Craig, without his help this project would never have been realized.
