Summary

In the tradition of Twayne's bestselling Asian Americans, Japanese Americans is the story of a people who left their native country to come to America, where many flourished despite discrimination and prejudice. This book follows the story of "Japanese Americans" from initial encounters with discrimination, to hardships during and after World War II, to the effects of later generations entering the middle class and the arrival of a new generation of immigrants in recent years.
