A few comments to those of you have told me you haven't been able to keep up on the reading
Hi, thanks for this recap. I stumbled across your substack while searching for a Shirer quote, and I'm looking forward to following along as best I can.
Thanks for the follow! Did you end up finding the quote?
Not yet! It was a passage I vaguely remembered from Berlin Diary where he described the oafish stupidity of Nazi leadership, one character at a time.
I think you are remembering the end of the long entry from Dec 1, 1940, just as Shirer is leaving Germany.
Thanks so much. I'll get a digital copy for easier searching.
