An outstanding, controversial British scholar of World War II and Third Reich history takes aim at the “Trial of Century” -- the Nuremberg Tribunal of 1945-46.

With full color dust jacket, photos, source notes, and index.

A stunning masterwork of startling facts and myth-busting perspective -- packed with revelations from long-suppressed private diaries and letters of judges, prosecutors, defendants and witnesses. Establishes that the Allies who sat in judgment were themselves guilty of many of the crimes for which the German defendants were tried and hanged. Exposes the Tribunal's double standard, with the Allies acting as judge, prosecution, jury and executioner. Reveals how Auschwitz Commandant Höss and other Germans were tortured to produce phony "evidence" that is still widely accepted today. Shows how the incessantly repeated "six million" figure of Jewish genocide victims was invented.

This handsome hardcover masterpiece is sumptuously illustrated with more than 70 photographs, many in full color and published here for the first time.
