The Nuremberg Trials were the most important criminal hearings ever held because they established the principle that individuals will always be held responsible for their actions under international law. Anyone wishing to understand the nature of evil can do no better than look within the pages of this book, which is for the most part an edited version of transcripts from the trial, featuring the leading Nazis who survived the war, including Hermann Goering, Albert Speer, Rudolf Hess, and many others. The Nazis were a collection of criminals, thugs, misfits, sadists and petty bureaucrats bound together by their philosophy of hate and their love of plunder. This book shows you how they were brought to justice.
