Source: Gift of J. Hartley Murray, 1982.
Scope and content
J. Hartley Murray’s notes, trial briefs, documents, and transcripts of daily proceedings of the Nuremberg Trials, 1945- 46. Murray, a 1933 graduate of Colorado College, served in as a member of the American legal staff during the trials.
The trial briefs and closing briefs in boxes 1- 2 do not appear in the published volumes. Boxes 2- 11 contain about 17,000 numbered pages of transcripts (lacking only pages 16,794-16,968). These are rough translations, less precise than the versions published in 1949 as Trial of the Major War Criminals before the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, 14 November 1945-1 October 1946 (42 volumes). With Murray’s occasional annotations throughout (see especially Folder 11). Retained in Murray’s original folders.
