Notorious incidents like the Nanking Massacre and the Bataan Death March emerge as merely part of a pattern of human rights abuses. Undoubtedly formidable soldiers, the Japanese were terrible conquerors. Their conduct in the Pacific is a harrowing example of the doctrine of mutual destruction carried to the extreme, and begs the question of what is acceptable—and unacceptable—in total war.\n\n      Pressestimmen      \nA stark reminder of the dangers of appeasement and pacifism in the face of a fanatical and nondemocratic enemy.\n      Über den Autor und weitere Mitwirkende      \nEdward Frederick Langley Russell, 2nd Baron Russell of Liverpool, was a three-time winner of the Military Cross in World War I.
