Christopher’s Reviews > The Making of the "Rape of Nanking": History and Memory in Japan, China, and the United States > Status Update

Anybody who thinks this book defends the conservative revisionist view that the massacre is a fabrication has clearly not actually read this book. He frequently denounces the revisionists and describes their claims as deceptive. He does not say anything regarding his view of the number of victims, though I get the impression he doesn't agree with the Chinese claim of 300,000, opting instead for 100-200,000.
