Description
"In the days and months after Pearl Harbor, the lives of Japanese Americans across the continent and Hawai'i were changed forever. In this unforgettable chronicle of wartime America and the battlefields of Europe, Daniel James Brown portrays the journey of Rudy Tokiwa, Fred Shiosaki, and Kats Miho, who volunteered for the 442nd Regimental combat Team and were deployed to France, Germany, and Italy, where they were asked to do the near impossible. Brown also tells the story of their parents, immigrants who were forced to submit to life in concentration camps on U.S. soil. Woven throughout is the chronicle of Gordon Hirabayashi, one of a cadre of patriotic resisters who stood up against their government in defense of their own rights. Whether fighting on battle fields or in the courtrooms, these were Americans under unprecedented strain, doing what Americans do best--striving, resisting, pushing back, rising up, standing on principle, laying down their lives, and enduring."-- Provided by publisher.
