Dawn of Darkness tells the hidden story behind the greatest scandal of the Second World War: how American soldiers miraculously overcame not only the Bataan Death March but medical experimentation in Manchuria under the Japanese biological weapons program. Looming in the background is Ishii Shiro, who conducted germ tests and vivisections on our POWs, and after the war, struck a secret deal with General MacArthur, trading the results of his grisly research in exchange for immunity from war crimes prosecution. More than fifty years later, the public is just beginning to comprehend the full scope of this dark chapter in our history. Dawn of Darkness, an epic rendering of these events, plums the uneasy relationship between the United States and its veterans of war, exploring the hidden costs-and unseemly spoils-of "victory."
