Description

Book Synopsis
Blends history, poetry, rescued memory, and family stories

Trade Review

This remarkable book is highly recommended reading for (younger) Sansei, Yonsei, Gosei and members of the burgeoning hapa population, as well of those of whatever background, in and out of educational institutions, who seek enrichment as individuals and communal beings within a multicultural nation via greater awareness of the Nikkei experience in the United States.

* Nichi Bei *

Poetic yet sharply honest, the family story unfolds within the larger context of the national saga. You'll wince but read it anyway. Your soul will be better for it.

* Nuvo *

This book is highly readable and contains fascinating details not usually covered in other books on Japanese American history.

* Oregon Historical Quarterly *
