Most Americans are unaware that Soviet forces detained and
imprisoned Japanese soldiers and civilians on a massive scale
following World War II. In addition to interning large numbers of
Japanese nationals in Soviet-occupied territories, the Red Army
deported more than half a million Japanese to labor camps in
Siberia and other parts of the USSR. Despite efforts to gain their
release, repatriation was not complete until 1956. William Nimmo's
book is the first work in English to provide a detailed account of
this little-known aspect of the war's aftermath.
