An incredibly detailed and thorough documenting of what is know about Mengele's life and movements, and the efforts to capture him after WWII. Well written and researched. Chilling to see that his horrifying human experimentation was based on the science of the time.

Advanced Readers copy provided by Edelweiss.

This book is advertised as a biography of Josef Mengele. However, the book seemed to be 90% about the search for Mengele and identifying Mengele's body than about Mengele himself. It also contained a history of the times, and discussed how Mengele's work was not only accepted but lauded by his co-workers. I probably would not have picked up the book if I knew what it was really about. Overall, this one was a bust.
