Berlin Diary: The Journal of a Foreign Correspondent 1934-41 by William L. Shirer

3.0

William Shirer made the choice to keep a journal to chronicle his time in Germany as a broadcaster as world war 2 got started.

At times this book plodded along slowly, which makes sense because there was a lot of waiting. Is today going to be the day the war began?

And then of course there were the similarities between what’s going on now in the US to the propaganda machine of Nazi Germany.
