David is a superb writer, imo, because he knows how to provide loads of details combined with personal letters and reports but in a way that doesn't overwhelm the reader (or listener) with mind numbing data.
Thank you from California.
Very interesting analysis
Gestapo read their letters, how can you expect them to be critical in their writing?
Solid analysis. Shame shit everyone else says. Bravo.
