In the Garden of Beasts

by Erik Larson



In this chilling piece of non-fiction, Erik Larson introduces us to William Dodd, who is a profes­sor from Chicago. In 1933 Dodd becomes the newly-named Ameri­can ambassador to Nazi Germany. His family—especially his daughter, Martha—is thrust into the astonishing and horrifying uprising of the Third Reich. As Dodd begins to realize what is occurring around him, those in the United States continues to look the other way. This is a startling account of how the world fell to pieces right before our eyes.
