Reckoning - Philippine Trials of Japanese War Criminals

Examination of postwar trials is now a thriving area of research, but Sharon W. Chamberlain is the first to offer an authoritative assessment of the legal proceedings convened in the Philippines. These were trials conducted by Asians, not Western powers, and centred on the abuses suffered by local inhabitants rather than by prisoners of war.
