ABSTRACT

THE TRIAL of Hitler for high treason was the greatest political trial which had hitherto been held in Germany. Hitler was not alone in the dock. Beside him stood General Ludendorff, Dr. Weber, Captain Röhm, Dr. Frick, and others. Nor were all the accused present. Göring, Esser, and Rossbach fled the country. His death on December 23 released Dietrich Eckart from the hands of justice.
