Greenlit: Hunting Nazi Treasure, History

Hunting Nazi Treasure – Investigative television series in which a team of present-day investigators led by Robert M. Edsel, Founder and Chairman of the Monuments Men Foundation for the Preservation of Art, and the author of the New York Times #1 Bestselling book-turned-movie The Monuments Men.  Joining Edsel on the team are investigative journalist Conor Woodman and World War II historian James Holland.  The detective work takes the team across four continents – from European salt mines and castles to the desert sands of North Africa and across the ocean to North and South America in search of some of the hundreds of thousands of paintings, documents, and other cultural objects worth billions of dollars that remain missing.

The investigators will be digging for new leads through questioning of top experts and historians of the Nazi era, and sifting through original documents, including de-classified intelligence reports, Nazi dossiers, rare archives, and private collections.  They will also meet with witnesses, veterans, victims and their descendants to hear their personal stories about what was lost and develop additional clues.
