The undaunted women of Nanking

[During the Rape of Nanking,] Vautrin, acting president of Ginling College, assisted by Tsen Shui-fang and a small Chinese staff, turned the women's college into a refugee camp specifically for women and children ... Vautrin's diary focuses on Gingling's refugee camp and the suffering endured ... It reveals a woman's voice on war in a foreign land as well as the humanity and courage of a female missionary in a time of terror ... Tsen's diary (1937-1948) is the first known daily diary recorded by a Chinese on the Rape of Nanking ... It ... reveals a Chinese national's anger and deep sorrow as she witnessed the atrocities committed by the Japanese, humiliation over the inhumane plight of refugees, compassion for her war-torn country, as well as her pain and humanity in a time of crisis"--Introduction.
