forestofglory: Cup of tea on a pile of books (books)
[personal profile] forestofglory
I borrowed this book form my brother who is the historian in the family. I thought this book was very well done, lots of quotes form ordinary people that really give you a feel for everyday life during the war. Overall this was a good read. There where many bits that made me go "How can people be so awful" but there where also times when people showed compassion. Still the over all balance was definitely towards people being racist. I think it is important that we acknowledge this kind of thing, so I'm glad I know more about it. I recommend the book, if you are interested in this type of thing.
