An incredible insight into how events unfolded from a social history perspective. A riveting read, very well edited by Julia Boyd.
Fascinating and well written.
At a time when America is operating concentration camps and moving ever more closely towards totalitarianism, this book is especially poignant. Why did tourists continue to visit a country that was so clearly uncivilized and aggressive? How did they reconciliate the politics of the country with the friendly, efficient people they met everywhere on their travels? At the same time, it's also a good recap of the events eading up to WW2 and the Holocaust, if you forgot those lessons from school, or can't entirely memorize the timeline. I'm recommending this book to everyone right now.
