The 19th of July is the Day of the Martyrs in Burma, the day Bogyoke Aung San and his colleague were mown down by assassins while they sat at their Executive Council meeting in 1947. The magnitude of the crime shocked the world and shook the young nation of Burma, then in the tenderness of rebirth.
This book gives, for the first time, the full story of the crime, with its background of politics and personalities, and of the trial of U Saw, himself a former prime Minister, and the men he directed. Glimpses of Burma?s history in those crucial times come through in the pages of this book, and snapshots of the people who have had a hand in the writing of that history.
