      About the Book

      The time is 1933, the place, Berlin, when William E. Dodd becomes America's first ambassador to Hitler's Germany in a year that proved to be a turning point in history. A mild-mannered professor from Chicago, Dodd brings along his wife, son, and flamboyant daughter, Martha. Written by the bestselling author of "Devil in the White City, In the Garden of Beasts" lends a stunning, eyewitness perspective on events as they unfold in real time, revealing an era of surprising nuance and complexity.

        Comments about In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin:

        Grand historical warning of the dangers of political ignorance. Personal view of how the greatest killing machine in the history of man grasp power. Of particular significance is the author's view of The Night of the Long Knives.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          Comments about In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin:

          I thought the book was informative, and provided a view of Hitler and Germany before the war that was new. The "goings on" of people in government was especially interesting to me.

          Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
