- Synopsis
- A New York Times bestseller, this riveting account of the Nuremberg trials by a legendary journalist is simply &“astonishing&” (Francine Prose). Sent to cover the war crimes trials at Nuremberg for the New Yorker, Rebecca West brought along her inimitable skills for understanding a place and its people. In these accomplished articles, West captures the world that sprung up to process the Nazi leaders; from the city&’s war-torn structures to the courtroom security measures, no detail is left out. West&’s unparalleled grasp on human motivations and character offers particular insight into the judges, prosecutors, and of course the defendants themselves. This remarkable narrative captures the social and political ramifications of a world recovering from the divisions of war. As engaging as it is informative, this collection represents West&’s finest hour as a reporter.
