I really enjoyed this book. Probably because I knew a family, living in ND, who owned a business here and were forced to leave their home and live in a detention camp.

A saga that spans the years 1917 to 1943 about one Japanese emigre to America-her life experiences and those of her friends and community. A fascinating tale of an immigrant experience made the more dramatic by the American response after Pearl Harbor
