American Survivors is a fresh and moving historical account of U.S.
survivors of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombings, breaking
new ground not only in the study of World War II but also in the
public understanding of nuclear weaponry. A truly trans-Pacific
history, American Survivors challenges the dualistic distinction
between Americans-as-victors and Japanese-as-victims often assumed
by scholars of the nuclear war. Using more than 130 oral histories
of Japanese American and Korean American survivors, their family
members, community activists, and physicians - most of which appear
here for the first time - Naoko Wake reveals a cross-national
history of war, illness, immigration, gender, family, and community
from intimately personal perspectives. American Survivors brings to
light the history of Hiroshima and Nagasaki that connects, as much
as separates, people across time and national boundaries.
