Nanjing requiem

Jin, Ha 1956- (Author).

Summary: In 1937, with the Japanese poised to invade Nanjing, Minnie Vautrin-- an American missionary and the dean of Jinling Women's College-- decides to remain at the school, convinced that her American citizenship will help her safeguard the welfare of the Chinese men and women who work there. She is mistaken. The school becomes a refugee camp for over ten thousand homeless women and children, and Vautrin must struggle to intercede on their behalf.
