FIRST EDITION OF A MAJOR SOURCE OF HISTORICAL MATERIAL. In April 1949, judgment was rendered in the last of the series of 12 Nuremberg war crimes trials which had begun in October 1946 and were held pursuant to Allied Control Council Law No. 10. The defendants, charged with war crimes and other offences against international penal law, were not only prominent figures in the Third Reich, but also industrialists and leaders of their professions. The records of these trials constitute a major source of historical material covering many events from 1933 (some earlier) to 1945, in Germany and elsewhere in Europe. (15)
