(Signed) The Issei Prisoners Of The San Pedro Internment Center

When the Japanese bomb Pearl Harbor, the once enviable life of Kenji Yamato, the privileged son of a Japanese diplomat living in San Francisco, California, is shattered forever. His fate now mirrors that of countless other Issei- the first immigrants from Japan - who are soon imprisoned in internment centers across the country. In his debut novel, author Stanley N. Kanzaki successfully weaves the themes of racism, love, violence, sex, and fate into a work that has the power to educate and entertain the reader.
