Defendants in the beer hall putsch trial

I’m busy trying to arrange appointments for our trip to Munich later this month. My goal is to talk with today’s Germans about how and why so many of their ancestors came to support Hitler and his program of exterminating the Jews.
In particular, I hope to speak with one or more Church leaders about the role of the Catholic Church in Hitler’s rise.
This is all research for my new novel, the first section of which takes place in Munich in 1923.

Hello Mr. Weinstein,
Just went on my husband Mario’s FB and was interested in your Author’s Blog. You may not know, but I am German, born in Sudetenland in 1945.
Mario and I lived in Munich for many years.
Best regards,
Margitta Di Gennaro
