Prisoners of the Empire: Inside Japanese POW Camps
The book challenges the longstanding belief that the Japanese Empire systematically mistreated Allied prisoners. Much of the worst treatment resulted from a lack of planning, poor training, and bureaucratic incoherence rather than an established policy of debasing and tormenting prisoners.
