A comprehensive history of the Frankfurt Auschwitz trial. This trial was the largest, most public and most important trial of Holocaust perpetrators conducted in West German courts. The book argues that in confronting systematic, state-sponsored genocide, the Frankfurt court ran up against the limits of law. Also provides an account of the divided response to the trial among the West German people.
