Description
Unit 731 Laboratory of the Devil, Auschwitz of the East exposes the largest bacterial warfare force in the history of the Second World War. This book reveals the full extent of Unit 731's biological warfare, from its manufacture and use to the devastating effects it had on China and other Asian countries. The testimony of veterans, surviving Chinese labourers, and families of victims provides a harrowing account of the medical crimes committed by Unit 731, as well as the war damage and post-war consequences. The book also explores the cover-up at the Khabarovsk War Crime Trials and the development of the Unit 731 Museum. A separate chapter examines Japanese chemical warfare, adding depth to this disturbing history.
