Kessler's story of the Yasuis, a Japanese American family interned in a relocation camp during World War II, is an important example of the American experience, reflecting racism, hard work and endurance. Kessler follows the family from its first generation in the US to the descendents living throughout the country today. The text includes discussion questions for reading groups and an interview with Homer Yasui, son of the Yasui patriarch. Distributed by the U. of Washington Press.
