Cloth in lightly toned dust jacket with a fe…w minor smudges and a tiny tear near , negligible light toning to interior. A very good copy. $95. * First edition. Volume 3 of the War Crimes Trials Series. In 1946 the British government tried Capt. Sadaichi and nine of his officers and men in Singapore for their maltreatment of British, American, Dutch and Indian POWs, some of whom were captured after the fall of Singapore in 1942. Most of the abuses were connected with their forced labor in the construction of the Burma-Siam Railway, which earned the nickname "Railway of Death." (The story of the British POWs who were forced to build another section of this railway inspired The Bridge Over the River Kwai.).
