Forgotten Trials of the Holocaust

By: Michael J. Bazyler, Frank M. Tuerkheimer

Narrated by: Colleen Patrick

In the wake of World War II, how were the Allies to respond to the enormous crime of the Holocaust? Even in an ideal world, it would have been impossible to bring all the perpetrators to trial. Nevertheless, an attempt was made to prosecute some. This audiobook uncovers 10 forgotten trials of the Holocaust, selected from the many Nazi trials that have taken place over the course of the last seven decades. It showcases how perpetrators of the Holocaust were dealt with in courtrooms around the world, revealing how different legal systems responded to the horrors of the Holocaust. The audiobook provides a graphic picture of the genocidal campaign against the Jews, through eyewitness testimony and incriminating documents, and traces how the public memory of the Holocaust was formed over time.
