Summary Commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the most important judicial proceeding of the twentieth century, this is the first book to examine historically the indictment of 22 Nazi leaders at the end of World War II. Skillfully weaving text and documents, the author presents the complex trial in its dramatic setting, in its historical context, and in legal perspective. The wide array of 73 primary documents - including journalistic accounts, private reflections, and tribunal transcripts - lets students evaluate first-hand the words of both prosecutors and defendants. Also provided are photographs of the trial, a chronology, brief biographies of the defendants, a selected bibliography, and an index.
