My husband began reading this book first, and I had a chance to read the first two entries last night. WOW! These people said it like it was.
The first entry, It's All Over" by William J Shirer, sure hit home. He had it all down pat and it's so scary to re-read his words today. It was written in Munich on September 30, 1938. Anyone out there well versed in WWII history knows what an impact this day played in the world. Yes, the turning over of the Sudetenland to Germany.
I am going to try and reprint this because I think all of you should read William's words. He was so on the mark with his assessment of Chamberlain, Hilter, Daladier Mussolini. His words are haunting to this day.
I will copy the text here later today.
