Title: Interesting Sino-centric description of events
Review: The author is a journalist, but no historian. The chronology of events listed and the dates are in disagreement with many other histories, including the 'official' accounts given by the KMT government. This book is written to evoke great amounts of emotion, but begins to show many weaknesses when viewed by those with any historical knowledge. This is a good book to add to a collection of works about WWII history, but the reader should definitely read other accounts in order to not be sucked in by the inaccuracies and sensational journalism in Chang's portrayal of a historical event. Just as one does not rely solely upon the National Enquirer to learn about the news, one should not take this book's version of history at face value. The book, "When Tigers Fight" give a better account of events during this part of World War II and is recommended for further reading.
