Description
'Every so often, a new work emerges of such immense scholarship and weight that it really does add a significant difference to our understanding of the Second World War and its consequences. Judgement in Tokyo is one such, a monumental work in both scale and detail, beautifully constructed and written, leaving the reader not only moved but disturbed as well.' – James Holland, The Sunday Telegraph
'The word ‘monumental’ is used by reviewers rather too often, but in this case it is entirely deserved.'– Rana Mitter, Times Literary Supplement
'A work of singular importance . . . balanced, original, human, accessible, and riveting' – Philippe Sands, author of East-West Street
'Always engrossing . . . a breathtakingly ambitious and well-executed piece of history, unlikely to be bettered as a portrait of the trials and their place in postwar global history' – History Today
A landmark, magisterial history of the postwar trial of Japan’s leaders as war criminals, and their impact on the modern history of Asia and the world.
