Why read it?

1 author picked Deutschland - April 1945 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Deutschland by Margaret Bourke-White paints a raw and wrenching portrait of Germany in the immediate aftermath of the war. The photographs of the suffering and destruction are shocking. The first-hand observations are immediate, occasionally wry, and cover everything from the black market; the relative appeal of American, British, and French soldiers to German girls; and social dancing classes.

From Ellen's list on the allied occupation of Germany.
