The Knights of Bushido

This is a very confronting book. It details the war crimes perpetrate against the Allied forces and local inhabitants by the Japanese during WWII, and includes; the treatment , massacre and murder of prisoners of war; the death marches; the prison camps, including the civilian internment camps; war crimes on the high seas, and atrocities against the civilian populations. The events are reported factually without sensationalism (hardly necessary anyway due to the horrific nature of the crimes) and helps to explain the Japanese ethos of Bushido, loyalty to the Japanese institution, where it is considered a weakness to surrender or not fight to the death,

One of most heartbreakingbooks i've ever read. The explanation of the event with the pictures takes your imagination to places that you wont even want to go to...
