Book Reviews of Nuremberg : Infamy on Trial
Book Review: Perscico's might be the best of the Nuremberg books
Summary: 5 Stars
I've always been facinated by the Nuremberg trials, and last year I actually took a college course solely on Nuremberg, so I've read many Nremberg historicals in my life. I think that this one might be the best simply because it is written in the most interesting way. Persico takes you through the trial as if it were a novel with twists and climaxes in its plot. He also interjects a fair amount of subjective criticism into the book ( much of which I disagree with ). I would recommend this book even above those written by trial participants such as Taylor's and Tusa's books for readers interested in learning about the shape and scope of the trials. This is especially true for readers new to the Nuremberg trial since this book is more likely than most to keep your attention throughout the book. The only book about Nuremberg that I have read that is better than Persico's is psychologist G.M. Gilbert's "Nuremberg Diary." Although this one is better for readers interested in learning about the trial itself.
