Never Sang for Hitler The Life and Times of Lotte Lehmann, 1888-1976

'... it not only rivals the type of research-driven tour de force we have come to expect of Kater, but it is also a labor of love. There is no way for the author to hide his admiration for Lehmann's talent, his wonder at her larger-than-life persona, and even at times his disappointment in her professional and personal choices. Kater has once again managed to amaze us, and we can only await with eager anticipation his next magnum opus.' The Journal of Central European History
