About This Book

An official inquiry compiles investigative findings and documentary material alleging breaches of the laws of war by German forces, presenting methods of enquiry, a critical appraisal of German official statements, and numerous eyewitness depositions and diaries. The narrative details reported outrages against combatants and civilians, including treatment of women and property, and assembles corroborating documents from multiple sources. It evaluates the credibility of competing accounts and reflects on the consequences for international law, considering questions of legal responsibility, retribution, and possible reforms, while separating summary conclusions from the appended documentary evidence.
