The Nuremberg Trials (At Issue in History)

The first tribunal to judge war criminals was formed at the close of World War II in the German city of Nuremberg. Knowing that atrocities are common to warfare, the United States and its allies set out at the outset of the trial to prove that many in Hitler's Nazi regime had exceeded the scope of military barbarism and, instead, actively pursued crimes against humanity. From court transcripts, newspaper reportage, and personal remembrances, the Nuremberg Trial and its ramifications come to life in Greenhaven Press' anthology.Mitchell G. Bard is the author of 'The Nuremberg Trials (At Issue in History)', published 2002 under ISBN 9780737710571 and ISBN 0737710578.
