Epilogue.
520 The true story of the monumental criminal proceeding that
followed when Hitler and nine other suspects were charged
with high treason. Reporters from as far away as Argentina
and Australia flocked to Munich for the sensational four-
week spectacle. By its end, Hitler would transform the
fiasco of the beer hall putsch into a stunning victory for
the fledgling Nazi Party. It was this trial that thrust
Hitler into the limelight, provided him with an
unprecedented stage for his demagoguery, and set him on
his improbable path to power. Based on trial transcripts,
police files, and many other new sources, including some
five hundred documents recently discovered from the
Landsberg Prison record office, this is a gripping true
story of crime and punishment -- and a haunting failure of
justice with catastrophic consequences. --|cfrom dust
