Descriere completă

This book is the first full portrait of a single assembly center - located at the Western Washington fairgrounds at Puyallup, outside Seattle - that held Japanese Americans for four months prior to their transfer to a relocation center during World War II. Gathering archival evidence and eyewitness accounts, Louis Fiset reconstructs the events leading up to the incarceration as they unfolded on a local level. The book explores the daily lives of the more than seven thousand inmates at 'Camp Harmony,' detailing how they worked, played, ate, and occasionally fought with each other and with their captors. Fiset also includes details on how Army surveyors selected the center's site, oversaw its construction, and managed the transfer of inmates to the more permanent Minidoka Relocation Center in Idaho.
