On February 19, 1942, President Franklin Roosevelt signed Executive
Order 9066, forcing the evacuation of over 100,000
Japanese-Americans from the West Coast to "settlement camps"
inland. The unethical dislocation of so many lives has been
documented in several poplular books, but none, until now, have
focussed on the internment camp known as Amache, located on the
southeastern plains of Colorado. This book not only presents the
story of Amache within the broader context of World War II, but
also details the effect the camp had on surrounding towns and
Colorado in general. Based on extensive research as well as
interviews with many of the survivors (many who chose to remain in
Colorado), this book statisfies a long-standing need for a
comprehensive history of this shameful episode in our history.
