Americans from Japan (The Peoples of America Series)

Descripción:

First edition. xxii, 409 pp. Publisher's red cloth with gilt spine lettering. Signed by series editor Louis Adamic on front free endpaper, dated 1948. Very Good with stain to top edge, in a Good dust jacket, chipped and creased with closed tear in front panel repaired with tape on verso, verso slightly dampstained, sticker scar to spine panel. Adamic was the foremost advocate of diversity in his day, a Slovenian immigrant who wrote and edited many books-- this one different in that Japanese-Americans had been a very stigmatized group in American society during WWII (in addition to their internment by the federal government during the war), and this volume asserted their essential American-ness to what one can safely assume was a largely hostile reading public.
