All of the German defendants were found guilty and more than half were sentenced to death.Yet none was executed and, a decade later, all had been released from prison. This outcome resulted primarily from the dogged efforts of Willis M. Everett, Jr., a prominent Atlanta attorney who jeopardized his status as a member of the social elite to defend with great zeal and commitment the accused Germans.James Weingartner offers fresh insights into one of the most controversial episodes of World War II and in the process casts new light on the often convoluted politics of war crimes justice. 001480359 538__ $$aMode of access: Internet via World Wide Web. 001480359 546__ $$aIn English. 001480359 5880_ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed 29.
