Notă biografică
RYOICHI SASAKAWA (1899-1995) founded what is now known as The Nippon Foundation, a philanthropic body that is Japan's largest charitable organization. From 1945 to 1949, Sasakawa was imprisoned in Sugamo Prison with other Class A War Criminals including Hideki Tojo. His path to imprisonment was uniquely dramatic, in that he actually volunteered to be indicted as Class A War Criminal in order to protect the Emperor and nation of Japan from unreasonable and one-sided condemnation through a process of victor's justice.
Recenzii
'Sasakawa's Sugamo Diary is a fascinating document; and Sasakawa is a fascinating person. His prison-based reflections, [and] his attitude to his American captors, and to Communists, as well as to fellow Japanese, including Emperor Hirohito and other Class A war criminals, all make for fascinating reading.' - Dr John Breen, SOAS, University of London
