Features: This book compiles five of the author's papers, 14 short essays and notes, and one review of a scholarly work. Through the examination of a large number of public and private original materials from the Japanese military organizations and individuals during the Anti-Japanese War, it meticulously critiques and corrects the various distortions and fabrications of the Japanese "fabrication faction" regarding the Nanjing Massacre, clarifies the facts, and sets the record straight. The book includes appendices such as bibliographies on the Nanjing Massacre, relevant chronicles, organizational tables of the Japanese forces attacking Nanjing, and questionnaires on the three factions of the Japanese "fabrication faction," "moderate faction," and "Nanjing Massacre faction." The book extensively uses "authentic" Japanese historical materials to deliver a fundamental critique and exposure of the arguments of the Japanese right-wing forces and the "fabrication faction" denying the Nanjing Massacre. The Confession of Toshio Ito is a domestically published illustrated book on the history of the Nanjing Massacre. The Far Eastern International Military Tribunal records the detailed proceedings of the Far Eastern International Military Tribunal, composed of judges from 11 countries, in the severe trial of 28 Class-A war criminals, including the former Japanese Prime Minister Hideki Tojo.
