Reviews
Praise for The Nazi Hunters Winner of the YALSA Excellence in Nonfiction AwardWinner of the Sydney Taylor Book Award for Teen Readers From cafes in Buenos Aires to the halls of the fledgling Israeli government, from false identities to secret drops, this story has all the hallmarks of a spy novel. Bascomb has a knack for turning complex detail into a suspenseful, heart-pounding narrative. -- School Library Journal Photographs are included throughout the text, adding not just to the evidence of Eichmann's guilt but to the reader's sense of being along on the mission. -- The Horn Book Magazine Tension rises from the pages, thanks to Bascomb's command of pacing, judicious use of quoted material, inclusion of archival photographs and strong descriptions. -- Kirkus Reviews
