ODESSA, Texas (KOSA) - In the mid-90′s, Robert Edsel sold his oil and gas company and moved to Europe ultimately uncovering and researching a story he wanted to write.
That story was about important work by the soldiers who helped find major pieces of artwork by some of the most well-known artists that were stolen by the Nazis during World War II. They became known as the Monuments Men, with Edsel writing the book “The Monuments Men.”
