Daniel Half-Human and the Good Nazi by David Chotjewitz

In 1933, best friends Daniel and Armin admire Hitler, but as anti-Semitism buoys Hitler to power, Daniel learns he is half Jewish, threatening the friendship even as life in their beloved Hamburg, Germany, is becoming nightmarish. Also details Daniel and Armin's reunion in 1945 in interspersed chapters.

Very interesting, quick read. The bond of friendship between Daniel and Armin remains strong- but will it be able to withstand the ultimate test? The historical details are accurate and contribute greatly to the story line. The variation between Daniel's future narration and the past third person narrator was slightly frustrating at times though.
