They thought they were free is one of my favorite books of all time. Well maybe not favorite, but most important books I've ever read I think. It's one of those books I think you have to read in life. You shouldn't be allowed to go through life without reading it.

I agree, although I am only on chapter 15. Working though it slowly. I just finished the chapter The Furies: Heinrich Hildebrandt. It was rough.
