		The rationale for the bombing of Dresden has been clouded by distortion of what happened there and has been interpreted as a perfidious British and American war crime by the last gasps of Nazi propaganda; that interpretation was continued by the East German communist regime until its collapse in 1989.
		Dresden was called the "Florence of the Elbe." Yet the Nazis, for all their wanton destruction, were careful to spare Florence itself on their retreat, blowing up the cities bridges, yes, but only blowing up the entrances to the great late-Medieval Ponte Vecchio, with the ancient houses that line that bridge remaining intact.
		As a visitor to Dresden and Berlin in the fall of 2004, and having lived in Nürnberg in the 1960s, I still find the subject matter in Frederick Taylor's "Dresden: Tuesday, February 13, 1945" to be compelling and worth further examination.
