    About this ebook

    Suffering and torture inflicted on innocent civilians with apparent impunity. The German concentration camps of World War II, the horrors of the Vietnam War, the rape and brutality during the break-up of Yugoslavia and the Hutu massacres of Tutsis in Rwanda. these are all abhorrent violations of the laws and customs of war, yet some of the worst abuses escape the classification of War Crime as they were not actually committed during armed conflict. Among these are Stalin's ethnic cleansing and his destruction of the Kulaks, the terror of the Khmer Rouge and Mao's collectivizations.

    This book records the worst atrocities in history whether they are war crimes or just pure evil acts.

    Janice Anderson

    Janice Anderson lives in the hills surrounding Nocona, Texas with her husband, Bob. Traveling with their two spoiled Cocker Spaniels is their ultimate pleasure. After attending college, Janice spent her life working in the secretarial/administrative field, ultimately finding her most treasured position in church ministry. Cast in a role not of her choosing, Janice is now the uniquely qualified author of her own heart wrenching life story. Compelled to share her story and experience, she has been led to become an author, public speaker and evangelist.
