A review by melbotics
The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves, and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History by Robert M. Edsel

informative slow-paced

3.0

This is a very interesting topic! Overall, I enjoyed this book, but it has a tendency to add cinematic / fictionalized segments which I found unnecessary. Some of them were quite gripping and effective - others, more introspective to the character  made me wonder "do we actually know this?" It could also be repetitive at times. That said, there's also a lot of primary sources and it seemed well researched.
