Hunting Eichmann by Neal Bascomb


Subtitle: How a Band of Survivors and a Young Spy Agency Chased Down the World's Most Notorious Nazi.


I LOVED this book but it was a hard read. It is all about how the young Israeli intelligence office captured Adolf Eichmann. The most interesting part of this book to me was the realization by the Israelis about how ordinary evil can be. Here was a man who masterminded the transportation of MILLIONS of people to be exterminated and he was just a sad, little, ordinary man.
