'The Monuments Men' - Robert M. Edsel
Untold story of rescuing Europe’s art after D-Day –great art, heroes, exploding mines, venal Nazis.
‘The Monuments Men, ’scheduled for publication in September 2009, chronicles the efforts of a small, understaffed group of Allied officers and enlisted men to recover art looted from across Europe. A little heavy on reconstructed conversations and internal dialogues, the book nonetheless paints effective portraits of the diverse group of Monuments Men and their efforts from D-Day through the end of the war in Europe and beyond. An interesting account of something I knew of , but not about.
