Uprooted : the Japanese American experience during World War II / Albert Marrin.
Just seventy-five years ago, the American government did something that most would consider unthinkable today: it rounded up over 100,000 of its own citizens, based on nothing more than their ancestry and, suspicious of their loyalty, kept them in concentration camps for the better part of four years. This book, published on the anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor, takes a closer look at the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II.
