Description
A study of the sequence of events after Pearl Harbor in which 100,000 men, women and children of Japanese ancestry--two thirds of whom were American citizens--were placed in "protective custody." A mass evacuation followed amid near hysteria. At the time, the author was the California state Commissioner of Immigration and Housing, and fought the evacuation; this book was one product of that struggle.
