    Synopsis
    The book that serves as the basis for the acclaimed George Clooney major motion picture, The Monuments Men. At the same time Adolf Hitler was attempting to take over the western world, his armies were methodically seeking and hoarding the finest art treasures in Europe. The Fuhrer had begun cataloguing the art he planned to collect as well as the art he would destroy: "degenerate" works he despised. In a race against time, behind enemy lines, often unarmed, a special force of American and British museum directors, curators, art historians, and others, called the Monuments Men, risked their lives scouring Europe to prevent the destruction of thousands of years of culture. Focusing on the eleven-month period between D-Day and V-E Day, this fascinating account follows six Monuments Men and their impossible mission to save the world's great art from the Nazis., At the same time Adolf Hitler was attempting to take over the western world, his armies were methodically seeking and hoarding the finest art treasures in Europe.

      • Saving art with big hearts.

        This book is an enlightening window into the selfless courageous efforts of a collection of people from the arts, education and other areas to save our cultural treasures thru Europe during World War ll from theft and damage...It was turned into a film..The Monuments Men but it is WELL WORTH reading this book to understand the sacrifice of life and time of these unsung heroes...The copy I purchased is in excellent condition, great price and GREAT SELLER....A fabulous summer read...
