Frank, Hans; Piotrowski, Stanislaw
Hans Frank's Diary
320 pages. Name index. Subject index. "A shortened version of the second edition (1957) of a work first published in Polish under the title 'Dziennik Hansa Franka' (Hans Frank's Diary). Frank was a Minister of the Third Reich and Governor General of those areas of Poland occupied by Nazi Germany which were not incorporated into the Reich. At the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg for the first time in the history of the world thousands of secret documents were revealed belonging to a state in the grip of the imperialist idea of world conquest. Among those documents Hans Frank's Diary occupies one of the leading positions both on account of its contents and on account of its more than ordinary length: 11,000 typwritten pages in foolscap, making up 38 volumes. Any study of the history of the last war must include a reading of Hans Frank's Diary." - Preface. Author was a member of the Polish delegation to the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg. Usual library markings. Above-average wear. Front hinge taped. Back hinge going. A worthy reading copy of this very important work. LASKA 316, KEHR & LANGMAID 5385. Book
