No trial provides a better basis for understanding the nature and causes of evil than do the Nuremberg Trials. Nazi War Trials offers a concise overview of these historic proceedings.

At the end of World War II, the victorious Allies began unprecedented proceedings against captured top-ranking Nazis, charging them with ''crimes against humanity.'' This book looks at the Nuremberg Trials and the personalities involved, from Nazi defendants, including Herman Goering and Rudolf Hess, to the judges and the prosecuting and defending counsels. It provides a detailed chronology of the courtroom proceedings and refers frequently to the horrific events of Nazi rule. Nazi War Trials also examines some of the issues that were raised at the time, including the legal validity of the trials themselves.
