Barnhart, Edward N. and Floyd W. Matson. Japanese American Evacuation
and
and Resettlement: Prejudice, War, and the Constitution. Berkeley, California: University of California Press, 1954. This work, actually part three of a three volume set, explores the evacuation
of the Japanese Americans in terms of its historical origins, political
characteristics, and legal implications. It follows a six-year intensive
study which sought to evaluate the treatment of the Japanese in light of
American ideals and ethics. The study is of particular value to those pursuing
the constitutionality of the internment.
Hosokawa, Bill. Nisei: The Quiet Americans. New York, NY: William
Morrow and
Hosokawa seeks to recount the dramatic story of his fellow Japanese Americans' adversity, challenge, and eventual triumph. Covering the entire history of the Japanese in America, the work is designed to provide all Americans with a better understanding of the Issei and the Nisei and their little-known struggles. A presentation from the Japanese point of view provides a unique glimpse into the indignities of the internment and its consequences for Japanese American culture. |
