Scourge of the Swastika: A History of Nazi War Crimes During World War II;

Scourge of the Swastika, first published in 1954, details atrocities committed by the Nazis during their reign of terror in Europe and on the high seas. The book, prepared by Lord Russell of Liverpool (a chief legal adviser for Britain during the war crimes trials following World War II) includes chapters on how the Nazis were organized to carry-out their massive scale of tyranny, treatment of prisoners of war, war crimes on the high seas, treatment of civilian populations, use of slave labor, a network of concentration camps, and the 'final solution.' The Scourge of the Swastika remains a chilling overview of not only the Holocaust, but of Nazi war crimes and their treatment of their own citizenry as well as that of civilians and soldiers in occupied territory. 16 pages of illustrations are included in this kindle edition (some of which are graphic in nature).
