2. They Were in Nanjing: The Nanjing Massacre Witnessed by
American and British Nationals
Suping Lu

The Nanjing Massacre, which took place after the Japanese attacked
and captured Nanjing in December 1937, shocked the world with the
magnitude of its atrocities. With newly uncovered eye-witness
material left behind by American and British journalists, missionaries,
and diplomats, They Were in Nanjing takes the readers back in time
to revisit the event and live through those horror-filled days. The first-
hand accounts range from English media reports, personal records,
missionary and Christian organization documents, to American and
British diplomatic and military documents. The research yields new
discoveries and presents issues that have previously not been
adequately dealt with, for instance, Japanese attacks on American
citizens, and losses and damage to American and British properties
as a result of Japanese atrocities. No other book on the Nanjing
Massacre presents the first-hand foreign perspective so thoroughly or
consistently.

Suping Lu is an Associate Professor at the University of Nebraska-
Lincoln, Nebraska.

'For decades, revisionists in Japan denied the existence of the 'Rape
of Nanking' - the brutal rape, torture and murder of hundreds of
thousands of Chinese civilians in 1937 and 1938 - while conveniently
ignoring the fact that these atrocities had been carefully recorded in
thousands of primary source documents across the globe. They
Were in Nanjing is an important compilation of many
contemporaneous eyewitness accounts, and should serve as a vital
historical resource for all serious scholars of the Pacific War.' !X Iris
Chang, New York Times bestselling author of The Rape of Nanking
and The Chinese in America: A Narrative History.
