| Abstract
|
:
|
Hidden Atrocities reveals the American obstruction that denied justice to Japan's WWII victims at the postwar Tokyo Trial. Jeanne Guillemin explains how U.S. national security goals led to the failure to prosecute imperial Japanese leaders for the war crimes of Unit 731, Japan's secret germ-warfare program.
