Synopsis
A detailed account of the bloody capture of Shanghai and Nanjing by Japan in the early days of World War II in the East., From 1931, China and Japan had been embroiled in a number of small-scale conflicts that had seen vast swathes of territory being occupied by the Japanese. On 7 July 1937, the Japanese engineered the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, which led to the fall of Beijing and Tianjin and the start of a de facto state of war between the two countries. This force then moved south, landing an expeditionary force to take Shanghai and from there drive west to capture Nanjing. This fully illustrated book tells the story of the Japanese assault on these two great Chinese cities. The battle of Shanghai was the first large-scale urban warfare of World War II and one of the bloodiest battles of the entire Sino-Japanese War. The determined resistance by Chinese inflicted sizable Japanese casualties, and may well have contributed to the subsequent massacre of prisoners and civilians in the battle of Nanjing, tarnishing Japan's reputation in the eyes of the world., The outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War in July 1937 plunged the Republic of China and the Japanese Empire into a bloody and prolonged conflict. In 1937, Shanghai - the 'Paris of the East' - was China's main commercial centre, modern and cosmopolitan. Nanjing, by contrast, was a place of ancient tradition, and the nation's capital. These two cites became the focus of the major battles of the campaign, involving more than 85 divisions and a million men; and after the fall of Nanjing, horrific massacres would take place. This early phase of the war would see Germany, the USA and the USSR all involved, contributing economic aid, strategic guidance and military support. This superbly illustrated book covers the many firsts of the campaign: the first trans-Oceanic bombing raid, the first large-scale targeting of civilians in war and the first fighter versus fighter combats in all-metal monoplanes.
