Description

This is the seventeenth volume in the complete proceedings of the Nuremberg trial of the German major war criminals before the International Military Tribunal sitting at Nuremberg, Germany.
Taken from the original court transcript this volume covers the proceedings from 20th June to 1st July, 1946 and represents an essential primary source for scholars and general readers alike. The transcripts are complete and contain the whole of the proceedings as taken from the original court documents.
This volume concludes the trial of Albert Speer, Hitler’s architect and the minister of Armaments and War Production. 
The cases for Konstantin von Neurath and Martin Bormann are also included. Von Neurath served as Foreign Minister of Germany from 1932 to 1938, and Reichsprotektor of Bohemia and Moravia from 1939 to 1943.
Martin Bormann was Hitler’s private secretary, and was constantly at the Führer's side. He was tried in absentia: his whereabouts were unknown and there were conflicting rumours of his life or death.
