Book Synopsis The Thyssen Art Macabre by : David R. L. Litchfield
Book excerpt: Having ruthlessly created one of the world's greatest industrial fortunes and acquired questionable aristocratic status, the Thyssens profited from both World Wars, financed the Nazis, armed Hitler, and were implicated in a Jewish atrocity. This volume looks at the development and squandering of their family fortune.
