Book Reviews of The Rape of Nanking: The Forgotten Holocaust of World War II

Book Review: History is a mirror
Summary: 5 Stars

Nanking is the capital of my home province. I have been told what terrible things Japan Army did before since I was very young. I can't forget the shock while I visited the museum in Nanking about the holocaust. I feel very angry that Japan government does not let their people know this terrible history. Who can guanrantee that this terrible thing will never happen again if we do not use this history mirror to warn us? I am very happy for the publishing of this book. I will buy two copies, one for my Japanese friend, another for myself. I hope there will be a Japanese version so that more Japanese people can read this.
