A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

THE MONUMENTS MEN - Robert M.Edsel
Very interesting and the work these people did was invaluable for all of us. The story of Rose Valland gets superficial treatment here due to lack of space but she was the real hero and was the reason most of the art was recovered.
Its not brilliantly written but interesting and a tale that needs told.
I hope the movie doesn't trivialize the efforts of those concerned too much.
