Drexel A. Sprecher was Assistant Trial Counsel at the first Nuremberg Trial and was Editor-in-Chief of the official fifteen volume Trials of War Criminals Before the Nuremberg Military Tribunals.
Sprecher faithfully records Robert Jackson's crusade for justice from start to finish. His book is the only one of its kind about the most important trial in history; it is a descriptive record of Nuremberg, from its preparatory phases to its consequent impact on international relations.
