Search - Farewell to Manzanar: A True Story of Japanese American Experience During and After the World War II Internment

A true account of Japanese internment in the United States after the Pearl Harbor bombing of WWII. This is a piece of history which we know so little about and is often forgotten. A beautifully written and very touching account of life behind barbed wire in the California dessert. Highly recommend this book as a glimpse into our history.

As haunting as the diary of Anne Frank.

This is a book everyone should read at least once in their lives. The Japanese Internment experience is one that should not be forgotten, and this memoir does a great job of illustrating what it was like.

Great book to learn a few things while you enjoy a journey of your own while reading this book.

Very interesting to gain some knowledge on a period I knew nothing about. At times funny and at times very sad. Jeanne was very honest is sharing her memories of this very sad time in our country.

This is a fabulous book. It was very visual and a great primary source for research on the internment camps during WWII.
If you love history, you will enjoy this book.
