2 great new #SWW articles, including "Towards a Nanjing narrative of the SWW in China: Navigating the stigma of an unspeakable past" by SWWRGNA member @Henshaw_PhD and Douglas Delaney's "Matters of culture & military structure" on Australia, US, and Britain during the war. More:
It's always exciting when the physical copy of the latest issue turns up. Of course, the articles themselves have been online for some time. And not everyone subscribes to the print version. So here is a reminder for some great online reading! https://t.co/OpPM4nZ7cZ
