"i liked thomas dodd's insider take on working at the nuremburg trials, but what i loved more was how his letters outlined his absolute love and devotion to his wife and children at home."
"This book was a subject sandwich: politics, war, politics. Toss in frustration and loneliness, and you have a summation of the book. The epistolary narrative is sprinkled with a few gems - which was my purpose for reading.
from October 7, 1945 "I pulled my hat brim down, turned my top coat collar up and discovered that I got a better reception. No cold stares but instead smiles and greetings. On the main street, particularly in the company of U.S. officers, I get ice water treatment. Some apparently look on me as a faithless German who is kowtowing to the U.S. Army."
Having compiled a few family books for various branches of my family, I understand Christopher Dodd's desire to provide a fuller, more personal perspective of his father's experiences at the trials. However, I personally do not feel enriched or better informed from the reading of this book."
"I really enjoyed this book. The author (a current US Senator) goes off on his foreign policy once and a while, but on the whole, it is a great book about the tragedy of some terrible men, and some weak men who are controlled by Hitler."
"This was much better written than I expected from Dodd. It's the story of his Father who was one of the main prosecutors at the Nuremberg trials after WWII. Interesting story and insights into some of the Nazis on trial."
