This is the classic, standard account of Japanese war crimes, a bestseller in its time but out of print for many years. Between 1931 and 1945 Japanese troops rampaged through one defeated country after another, executing civilians, despoiling cities, massacring prisoners, and cruelly exploiting prisoners of war and native populations. This carefully constructed history charts this brutal swath of destruction, objectively examines individual crimes, and details the reasons behind Japan's unprecedented disregard for accepted humanitarian principles.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Lord Russell of Liverpool served in World War I and II and acted as Deputy Judge Advocate General for the British Army of the Rhine, giving legal advice on the prosecution of war criminals. He also wrote The Scourge of the Swastika.
