Wonderful account of the events that led up to the trials and the trial itself. It will give you quite insight into the actual players. Persico is a prolific writer and I had the pleasure of attending a lecture that he gave at the Robert Jackson Center (the head proscecutor from the US at the trials) in my home town. Great history lesson!
