“In his book，Devin O。 Pendas meticulously examines every phase of the trial。 He provides an in-depth account of the complex，lengthy legal and political machinations that preceded the trial，moves on to an exhaustive analysis of the actual courtroom proceedings and concludes with an assessment of German public reactions。The extremely detailed narrative will certainly satisfy readers who prefer encyclopedic rigor，although others might consider the book’s reconstruction of the procedural maneuvers during the trial to be denser than necessary， despite the author’s formidable lucidity。The impressive archival research on which the book is based is well reflected in its extensive citations， which Cambridge University Press admirably continues to print at the bottom of the page。”
The Franklin Auschwitz trial was the largest，most public，and most important trial of Holocaust perpetrators conducted in West German courts。Drawing on a wide range of archival sources，Devin O。 Pendas provides a comprehensive history of this momentous event。Situating the trial in a thorough analysis of West German criminal law，the book argues that in confronting systematic， state-sponsored genocide，the Frankfurt court ran up against the limits of law。This book provides a compelling account of the divided response to the trial among the West German public。
