The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History

English

By (author): Robert M. Edsel

Now a major film starring GEORGE CLOONEY, MATT DAMON, CATE BLANCHETT, BILL MURRAY, JOHN GOODMAN, HUGH BONNEVILLE, BOB BALABAN, JEAN DUJARDIN and DIMITRI LEONIDAS.
What if I told you that there was an epic story about World War II that has not been told, involving the most unlikely group of heroes?
What if I told you there was a group of men on the front lines who didnt carry machine guns or drive tanks; a new kind of soldier, one charged with saving, not destroying.
From caves to castles in a thrilling race against time, these men risked their lives daily to save hundreds of thousands of the worlds greatest works of art.
THEY were the Monuments Men, and THIS is their extraordinary true story.
Remarkable Washington Post
Engaging, inspiring Publishers Weekly
