This book has a dual purpose. The first is to present a biography
of Yamato Ichihashi, a Stanford University professor who was one of
the first academics of Asian ancestry in the United States. The
second purpose is to present, through Ichihashi's wartime writings,
the only comprehensive first-person account of internment life by
one of the 120,000 persons of Japanese ancestry who, in 1942, were
sent by the U.S. government to "relocation centers," the euphemism
for prison camps.
Arriving in the United States from Japan in 1894, when he was
sixteen, Ichihashi attended public school in San Francisco,
graduated from Stanford University, and received a doctorate from
Harvard University. He began teaching at Stanford in 1913,
specializing in Japanese history and government, international
relations, and the Japanese American experience. He remained at
Stanford until he and his wife, Kei, were forced to leave their
campus home for a series of internment camps, where they remained
until the closing days of the war.
