reviewed The Swiss, the Gold, and the Dead: How Swiss Bankers Helped Finance the Nazi War Machine - J... on February 01, 2017 The Swiss, the Gold, and the Dead
It took me a while to read this book, because I was in the midst of it when the election happened and, as a dual citizen of Switzerland and the United States, I didn't feel up to being overwhelmed with shame for two nationalities at the same time, so I had to set this aside for a while. But it is a passionate, well researched, solid piece of scholarship which makes it absolutely clear that the Swiss government violated international law to prop up the Nazi regime, extending the war and causing millions more to die than would have died otherwise. The fact that, compared to Germany and other Axis powers' culpability, their participation was so indirect makes it all the more appalling how the Swiss populace and government have fought so bitterly to suppress and deny these facts. Every Swiss should read this book.
