Rebecca Wittmann. Beyond Justice: The Auschwitz Trial. Cambridge: Harvard University Press. 2005. Pp. 336. $35.00.

The twenty-month trial in Frankfurt of twenty perpetrators from the Auschwitz concentration camp, which lasted from December 1963 until August 1964, was the largest and best publicized of all of West Germany's trials against Nazi perpetrators. A wealth of information has been available about the trial since 1965, when extensive excerpts from pretrial documents, the indictments, much daily courtroom dialogue, and the judgment were published in the two-volume documentation by Auschwitz survivor Hermann Langbein, Der Auschwitz-Prozess. Additionally, the over 500-page compilation of Bernd Naumann's trial reports from the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung was published in English as Auschwitz: A Report on the Proceedings (1966). There were, however, no scholarly assessments until the publication of a collection of essays edited by Ulrich Schneider (Auschwitz: Ein Prozess [1994]) and a monograph by Gerhard Werle and Thomas Wandres (Auschwitz vor Gericht [1995]).
