More about the book

The book explores Japan's unique stance during World War Two, focusing on its refusal to comply with Nazi Germany's demands to persecute the Jewish population under its occupation. It delves into the reasons behind Japan's relatively humane treatment of the 40,000 Jews, offering insights into the complexities of wartime alliances and moral choices. Through historical analysis, the author seeks to uncover the motivations and circumstances that led to this unexpected behavior amidst the broader context of the Axis Alliance.
