As a United States war crimes investigator during World War II, Benhamin B. Ferencz participated in the liberation of Nazi concentration camps. He returned to Germany after the war to help bring perpetrators of war crimes to justice and remained to direct restitution programs for Nazi victims. In Less Than Slaves, Ferencz describes the painstaking efforts that were made to persuade German industrial firms such as I. G. Farben, Krupp, AEG, Rheinmetall, and Daimler-Benz to compensate camp inmates who were exploited as forced laborers. The meager outcome of these efforts emerges from searing pages that detail the difficulties confronted by Ferencz and his dedicated colleagues. This engrossing narrative is a vital resource for all who are concerned with the moral, legal, and practical implications of the recent significant increase in the number of compensation claims by victims of persecution. First published in 1979, Ferencz's penetrating firsthand account returns to print with the author's evaluation of its historical significance and current relevance.

Nuremberg and Vietnam: An American Tragedy

Quadrangle Books; distributed by Random House

The German Wehrmacht swept across Europe in the spring of 1940, like a great scythe, in a triumph unparalleled in modern history. Adolf Hitler's call to end the war after the conquest of Poland was rejected by the allied governments of France and Britain: within three months Scandinavia, the Low Countries, and France were crushed by the stunning impact of the German military machine. The British, suffering losses of men and material, were forced off the continent at Dunkirk, yet they continued to fight against German domination. Their tenacity became a crucial factor in thwarting the outcome of Hitler's march of conquest.Telford Taylor had an excellent opportunity to gather material for this book: he served as chief counsel at the Nuremberg war crimes trials. He handles a wealth of information, weaving into a smooth narrative the details of the war from the lowest to the highest levels of command. Taylor's presentation of the facts, from the German perspective, is balanced and skillful and stands as one of the most important books on the subject available today.
