The Tiger Of Malaya : the Story Of General Tomoyuki Yamashita And "Death March" General Masaharu Homma [Illustrated Edition]
As in Nazi occupied countries that were liberated by the Allies, horrible crimes had been uncovered in Asia, perpetrated in the name of superior culture on defenseless civilians and prisoners of war. As the emaciated American, British, and Australian soldiers emerged from the prisoner of war camps with barbaric tales of torture, mistreatment, and neglect, it was clear that justice must be sought. The U.S. Military fixed on two Japanese generals who were foremost in causing and ordering these outrages: the conqueror of Malaya, Tomoyuki Yamahsita, and the notorious 'Death March' Masaharu Homma. A fascinating sidelight on the ending of the World War II
