Hitler's Art Thief

Hildebrand Gurlitt, the Nazis, and the Looting of Europe's Treasures

Heavy on the details in this author's telling, but *definitely* a story to read. The Allies failed to prosecute some of these war criminals - Nuremburg was full of trials for those who operated the camps, but was not willing to acknowledge the direct links between genocide and the wholesale looting of art from the conquered and annihilated people of Europe. A grisly story of inhumanity on the part of a man who started life as a humanist.
