In July 1937 the Japanese Imperial Army, which already controlled a large section of northeastern China, launched an undeclared war against the Republic of China. Five months later, on December 13, its troops entered the capital city of Nanking and began raping and murdering its citizens in an orgy of violence that has few parallels in modern history.

Tens of thousands of Chinese prisoners-of-war were machine gunned en masse. An estimated 20,000 women were raped. Countless defenseless civilians; men, women and children were killed on the streets or in their homes. A British reporter who was on the scene compared the Japanese troops to Attila and the Huns. Writer George Will described the mass slaughter, which became known as “The Rape of Nanking” as “perhaps the most appalling single episode of barbarism in a century replete with horror.”

The Rape of Nanking was front page news when it happened but it was soon forgotten in the west, swept into the dustbin of history until 1994 when a young Chinese-American writer named Iris Chang saw photographs of the atrocities at a conference in Cupertino, California. Chang had an epiphany when she realized that those photographs captured the last second of a real person’s life and they were no longer anonymous corpses in a photograph. Chang, whose own grandparents had barely escaped the massacre, decided it was her responsibility to rescue this event from oblivion.
