Once encircled by an ancient, immense stone wall built during the Ming
dynasty, Nanking was a city of imperial palaces and lavish tombs. Temples
perched on the surrounding mountains and lotus blossoms studded its lakes. In
the summer of 1937, relics of the old Nanking mingled—and clashed—with the new
Nanking. Automobiles sped past rickasha pullers and an occasional water buffalo
or camel wandered into the street. People escaped their sweltering houses by
spending their evenings in the open air chatting with neighbors. No one could
know that these lazy summer nights would usher in six weeks of terror, and that
the majestic Yangtzee River would soon run red with blood.
"If the dead from Nanking were to link hands, they would stretch from Nanking
to the city of Hangchow, spanning a distance of some two hundred miles. Their
blood would weigh twelve hundred tons, and their bodies would fill twenty-five
hundred railroad cars. Stacked on top of each other, these bodies would reach
the height of a seventy-four-story building."
