Book Synopsis Hong Kong's War Crimes Trials by : Suzannah Linton
Book excerpt: Immediately after the Second World War 46 trials were held by the British military in Hong Kong in which 123 defendants, mainly from Japan, were tried for war crimes. This book is the first to analyze these trials, situating them within their historical context and showing their importance for the development of international criminal law.
