The Devil’s Workshop by Adolf Burger is fantastic. I give 5 stars to many books, but sometimes I wish I could give 6 and this is one of them. Burger was a Slovakian Jew in Auschwitz before being included in the largest counterfeiting operation in the world, in a camp near Berlin. The book is illustrated throughout and that makes it even more interesting. The chapters are short and he talks without embellishments, just presents the situation as it is. I think this is why I’ve enjoyed this book so much. In the last 3 years of the war the Nazi forced over 140 inmates to forge both British and American banknotes, besides stamps, bonds, and some other documents. This extraordinary account tells his story starting before the war, intertwined with mentions of others who experienced the tragedy of being in the concentration camps. He was liberated from Ebensee concentration camp, but, before that, he is presenting clearly how the counterfeiting operation went, which is so interesting to read... Read more

[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars I have seen programs on cable about Nazi flying saucers so this was a perfect story to read. The book starts with a very interesting tale of a scam artist in the Eastern parts of the US trying to get money for the new fourth reich. People actually fell for it but the story goes on to be an example of the war of fake news and real news that went on after the Germans were defeated. This book has an explanation for the saucers that is very plausible after the examples of the hysteria over Hitler maybe being still alive. I don't want to ruin the explanation but the math and the science maybe was there for German flying craft of an unbelievable origin . Excellent and interesting look at the Bell and other possible Nazi craft.

The author presents information which fills a gap in many interested readers’ analysis of one of the most analysed people of the 20th century, Adolf Hitler. Allowing armchair analysts to consider nature versus nurture, the book offers insights into Hitler’s father and perhaps raises even more questions about how someone like Hitler came to be the person he was, have the ideas he had and how he rose to such a position of influence and authority.
