A key member of the prosecution team at the Nuremberg war crimes trials offers an eyewitness account of the tribunal, shedding new light on the accused top-echelon Nazis, the events of the trials, the verdicts, and more. This book is a detailed and in depth eyewitness account of the first ever international tribunal of war crimes which was held in Nuremberg, Germany, during 1945-46. The defendants who were the chief military and political leaders of the Third Reich were questioned and tried by 4 prosecutors, each from the four allied powers of Great Britain, France, United States and the Soviet Union. Throughout the trial we hear of the atrocities committed and the denials and excuses. We are presented with the evidence of the crime and the defendants' role in the Nazi regime. Telford Taylor is well fitted to provide a good survey of the surprises and complexities of the proceedings. A young lawyer, he joined the Nuremberg prosecution team under Justice Robert H. Jackson in Autumn 1945. He worked as a prosecutor at Nuremberg throughout the main "four-power" trial of 1945-46, and then, after being promoted to Brigadier General, directed the series of "Little" Nuremberg trials held in the American zone of Germany.
