adventurous hopeful informative inspiring reflective tense fast-paced

Fascinating account of curators and art historians employed first to minimize wartime impact on cultural artifacts and buildings and then to locate and rescue art works stolen by the Nazis. Inspiring and engaging. A terrific book.
