The Anti-Japanese War in the Eyes of Foreign Journalists
The collection is based on translated writings of nine foreign journalists, who reported on China's war for different media organizations, such as Millard's Review, Shanghai Evening Post and Mercury, and Manchester Guardian.
Published by Shanghai Scientific and Technological Literature Press, the collection preserves the original text and adds historical photos to give a visual tour of the events during the war.
Their essays include The Challenge of Red China by German reporter Gunther Stein, who wrote about his experience in areas controlled by the Communist Party of China during the war, and The People's War by Jewish journalist Israel Epstein, who later acquired Chinese citizenship.
In 1938, a description of the Nanjing Massacre in Australian journalist Harold John Timperley's book, What War Means: The Japanese Terror in China, shocked the world after it came out.
