The Trial of Henry Kissinger: Christopher Hitchens

Possibly Christopher Hitchens' most wry and provocative work, The Trial of Henry Kissinger analyses the legacy of American diplomat Henry Kissinger, implicating him in a series of alleged war crimes and breaches of international law. Christopher Hitchens goes straight for the jugular in The Trial of Henry Kissinger. Under his fearsome gaze, the former Secretary of State and National Security Advisor is accused of being a war criminal whose reckless actions and heinous disregard for international law have led to torture, kidnapping, and murder.This book is a polemical masterpiece by a man who, for forty years, was the Angloshpere's preeminent man of letters. In The Trial of Henry Kissinger, Hitchens' verve, style and firebrand wit are on show at the height of their potency.'A good liar must have a good memory: Kissinger is a stupendous liar with a remarkable memory.' Christopher Hitchens
