Description
Hans Frank: Hitler's Lawyer and Architect of Nazi Race Laws A harrowing account of one of the ten war criminals hanged at Nuremberg in 1946, who formalized the Nazi race laws. This biography sheds light on the life of Hans Frank, a man whose intellectual ambition and hubris led him to play a pivotal role in shaping the Nazi regime. Frank's conversion to Catholicism before his death is just one aspect of a complex and deeply troubled individual. As he faced justice at Nuremberg, Frank's remorse, self-pity, and arrogance were on full display. This book provides a nuanced exploration of Frank's life, revealing the contradictions and complexities that defined him. Author Garry O'Connor brings his expertise as a playwright, biographer, and novelist to this gripping account of Hans Frank, a figure whose legacy continues to fascinate and disturb us today.
