Jewish Book Festival: The Prosecutor by Jack Fairweather

The Prosecutor: One Man’s Battle to Bring Nazis to Justice

In his well-researched, deeply fascinating book, this best-selling author draws on unpublished family papers, newly declassified German records, and exclusive interviews to bring the incredible true story of Fritz Bauer to life. A gay, Jewish judge from Stuttgart, Bauer survived the Nazis and was resolved to bring those who remained at large to justice. Fairweather immerses history lovers in the Cold War era of West Germany, where determination sets Bauer against a network of former Nazis and spies who wanted to silence him.
