It is a history that has been buried and forgotten, yet it is a history that must be revealed and understood.

The book consists of five chapters: The Forgotten Military Fortress Complex; Horrific Labor Conditions in the Fortress; The Spirit and Flesh of Comfort Women in the Fortress; Breaking Through the "Eastern Maginot Line"; For an Unforgettable History.
