October 2026 Friday’s e-links: A Really Good Book

Every once in a while, (and sometimes each day), I listen to a great podcast, enjoy an article, or see a good video that I want to share with you. These are my e-links.

During the past week, I’ve been listening to The Munich Affair. As historical fiction, this Patterson/Ellis mystery moves between Nazi Germany and a contemporary professor’s research. A page turner, the book takes us through events that lead up to World War II and then the war. The fascinating part, though, is our perspective. Because the authors place us with Hitler, his advisors, and his planning, we get what might have been his thinking. At the same time, we meet a Jewish businessman who initially refused to recognize the threat from Hitler. Then, completing the story, we follow the war through the resistance.  Together, the three different protagonists fit together as a human history of events that have some contemporary relevance.

While the facts might and might not be true, the book is a good read.
