Customer Review:
A fabulous insight into what else went on during WWII. Most instructive about the treasures of Europe. And the evilness of the Germans at the time. We thought we knew a lot about the treasures, but the book really opened our minds. J&J

from Harper
Price: $12.29

Customer Review:
Francine Prose makes you realize that the diary is not just a teaching tool but a major literary masterpiece. The diary, which Prose includes in her course at Bard, should be wider taught in colleges, as well as high schools, rather than just middle schools.
