But as the process of postwar retribution began to unearth evidence of enthusiastic local participation in the Holocaust, the hated government, traumatized populace, and fiercely independent judiciary found themselves struggling to salvage a sanitized vision of the past that could serve as the basis for national unity. Long dismissed as Stalinist farce, Poland's 32,000 trials for collaboration were in fact a scrupulous, complex search for the truth. Making use of unpublished memoirs, interviews, ministerial archives, and hundreds of individual case files, The August Trials documents how trials became the crucible in which the communist state and an unyielding society hammered out the foundational myth of modern Poland"--
