- This book provides an insightful account of how journalists covered the Nuremberg Trials, one of the most consequential tribunals in history, held after the Second World War. Authored by Noël Marie Fletcher, it highlights the pivotal role of the international press in reporting the trials that brought Nazi war criminals to justice.

It celebrates the bravery and dedication of journalists from various Allied nations who documented the trials, often at great personal risk, and emphasizes their contributions to history.
