What is National Covenant : agreement, 1638 February 28 about?
<br> With charm, humor, and deep understanding, a Japanese American woman tells how it was to grow up on Seattle's waterfront in the 1930s and to be subjected to "relocation" dring World War II. Along with some 120,000 other persons of Japanese ancestry--77,000 of whom were U.S. citizens--she and her family were uprooted from their home and imprisoned in a camp. In this book, first published in 1952, she provides a unique personal account of these experiences. <p>"Monica Sone's account of life in the relocation camps is both fair and unsparing. It is also deeply touching, and occasionally hilarious." <i>--New York Herald Tribune</i></p> <p>"The deepest impression that this unaffected, honest little story made on me was of smiling courage." <i>--San Francisco Chronicle</i></p>
