Berlin Embassy
''Berlin Embassy'' is a non-fiction book written by American diplomat William Russell (1915-2000)〔(Obituary )〕 and first published in late 1940. Russell, who worked at the American Embassy in Berlin, details his experiences of living and working in Nazi Germany between August 1939 and April 1940 during the early phases of the Second World War in the book.
==The work==
The book describes William Richard Russell's experiences between August 31, 1939 to April 10, 1940, dealing with the outbreak of the Second World War, Invasion of Poland and Phoney War, as well as touching on the beginning of the Invasion of Norway.
Russell was a clerk on the consular staff of the American Embassy in Berlin.〔James B. Lloyd ''Lives of Mississippi Authors, 1817-1967'', p. 398〕 The book consequently reflects his personal experiences of life in Berlin during the early stages of the war through annecdotes, press cutting, rumours and jokes rather than covering the political and diplomatic aspects of his job in any great detail:
Despite this professed objective, the final chapter is devoted to a study of the character of Adolf Hitler.
