Summary

This is the story of how a relatively poor European country not only survived the war physically intact, but came out of it much wealthier in 1945 than it had been when war broke out in 1939. The country's emergence as a prosperous European Union nation would be financed in part, it turns out, by a cache of Nazi gold
