"This book... reads more like an adventure novel than a mere retelling of history, especially after the unit's mission changes from preserving treasures from bombing to recovering looted artwork. And that's the tone that reader Jeremy Davidson delivers. He varies the pacing effectively, based on the nature of the text. He speeds up slightly during exciting action-filled sequences. He reads letters and documents with a flatter tone, making it easy for listeners to discern when the document stops and the author's words resume." - AudioFile Magazine on The Monuments Men , "This book_ reads more like an adventure novel than a mere retelling of history, especially after the unit's mission changes from preserving treasures from bombing to recovering looted artwork.

Synopsis
Now a major motion film! 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 Fuehrer 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 from Robert Edsel and Bret Witter follows six Monuments Men and their impossible mission to save the world's great art from the Nazis., Tie-in editon to the major motion-picture starring, George Clooney, Matt Damon, Daniel Craig, John Goodman, Bill Murray and Cate Blanchett- in theaters December 18th, 2013.
