The Monuments Men by Robert Edsel with Bret Witter, 595 pages

The Monuments Men were a small group (9 or so men) who were responsible for trying to protect culturally important locations and artwork during WWII and trying to track down the artwork that the Nazis confiscated from the original owners. They helped locate and preserve some very important pieces. I've been wanting to watch the movie but I live by a code of not seeing a movie until I've read the book.
