kshertz's review against another edition

informative medium-paced

4.5

I knew next to nothing about this historical event going in. I learned so much. It’s a very brutal and difficult book to read but a very important one. Definitely think it’s something people should talk about more. I definitely think we should be holding Japan accountable as well. It also makes you reflect on the US and their own “Holocaust”’as well. Extremely well researched and very necessary info for people to have. It’s not a stretch to say the author put themselves in danger deciding to write this book. I appreciated the opportunity to learn and grow and will pass this info on.
