- Synopsis
- At the outbreak of World War II, the Japanese Americans who lived in the San Francisco Bay Area were sent to "relocation camps," chiefly to Topaz in the Utah desert. This book, based on interviews and extensive historical research, is a vivid account of the lives of the people who were forcibly confined at Topaz. The book also examines how the internment experience affected these people in the decades after the war. Other books in this subject area are available from Bookshare.
