The Brothers Grimm: Two Lives, One Legacy by Donald R. Hettinga

Juvenile non-fiction! A wonderful way to be introduced to the lives of the Grimm brothers. The author does a find job of laying out their lives and the part they play in history. The older brother, Jacob, was quite a scholar of philology and a leading figure in German nationalism, which unfortunately was appropriated by the Nazis. I read it in a day and I was impressed by this work.
