Customer Reviews

fascinating view

This book is far more interesting for its mise en scene and political statements than for the actual details of the crimes. The seamless blend of historical and fictional people makes it fascinating. Today the Duke and Duchess of Windsor have been largely sentimentalized and their political views have been swept into the background. For people who are interested in the conflicting views preceding the entry of the U.S. into WWII, this book offers an insider's insight.
