What Did the Internment of Japanese Americans Mean"" (Historians at Work)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
During World War II, over 120,000 Japanese Americans were removed and confined four years in sixteen camps located throughout the western half of the United States. Yet the internment of Japanese Americans in concentration camps remains a largely unknown episode of World War II history. In these selections, Alice Yang Murray investigates the U.S. government's role in planning and carrying out the removal and internment of thousands of citizens, resident aliens, and foreign nationals, and the ways in which Japanese Americans coped with or resisted their removal and incarceration.
