About the Book

Deeply traditional in their thinking but inherently pragmatic by nature, Japanese immigrants in Hawaii were driven by conviction to unite under the mantra, "For the Sake of the Children!" to commit to raising their island-born children as full-fledged Americans irrevocably committed to America's highest ideals.
