Monuments Man EXTRAS

These “Extras” supplement the latest edition of Monuments Man. Most importantly, they capture James Rorimer’s original Appendices to the first edition. Although outdated in many respects, they offer ready access to those historical materials. The Extras also include a list of books for further reading suggested by Louis Rorimer, some of which are not referenced in Monuments Man. They mostly cover the related topic of tracking in Classical antiquities. More Extras may be added from time to time.
