The nightmare years, 1930-1940

Here is the astounding odyssey of famous journalist, pioneer broadcaster and prizewinning author of The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, William L. Shirer, from the staid heartland of America to the chaotic splendor of Europe between the wars. Within are powerful firsthand accounts of the place and people he encountered during this tumultuous era: Paris, London and Berlin: Hemingway, Fitzgerald and Isadora Duncan; prime ministers, presidents and premiers, to name a few. This is also the quintessential American journey of a small-town boy from Iowa who found himself in the exciting job of foreign correspondent-and an eyewitness to the upheavals in morals, art and politics that forged the shape of the modern world. The second volume of Mr. Shirer's remarkable 20th Century Journey is The Nightmare Years: 1930-1940
