Paperback. Condizione: New. Yasutaro Soga's ""Life behind Barbed Wire"" (Tessaku seikatsu) is an exceptional firsthand account of the incarceration of a Hawai'i Japanese during World War II. On the evening of the attack on Pearl Harbor, Soga, the editor of a Japanese-language newspaper, was arrested along with several hundred other prominent Issei (Japanese immigrants) in Hawai'i. After being held for six months on Sand Island, Soga was transferred to an Army camp in Lordsburg, New Mexico, and later to a Justice Department camp in Santa Fe. He would spend just under four years in custody before returning to Hawai'i in the months following the end of the war. Most of what has been written about the detention of Japanese Americans focuses on the Nisei experience of mass internment on the West Coast - largely because of the language barrier immigrant writers faced. This translation, therefore, presents us with a rare Issei voice on internment, and Soga's opinions challenge many commonly held assumptions about Japanese Americans during the war regarding race relations, patriotism, and loyalty. Although centered on one man's experience, ""Life behind Barbed Wire"" benefits greatly from Soga's trained eye and instincts as a professional journalist, which allowed him to paint a larger picture of those extraordinary times and his place in them. The Introduction by Tetsuden Kashima of the University of Washington and Foreword by Dennis Ogawa of the University of Hawai'i provide context for Soga's recollections based on the most current scholarship on the Japanese American internment.…

First edition in book form, expanded with statistical tables related to Japanese immigration to Hawai'i. Soga arrived in Hawai'i in 1896 and remained there until he died, building his Nippu Jiji newspaper. He was detained for his activism in the 1910s and as part of the Japanese internment policies of the 1940s, which he covers in this work. Soga (1873-1957) spent his childhood in Tokyo before moving to Hawai'i to help his family business. In 1899, he began working at the newspaper Hawaii Shimpo, where he fought for compensation for Japanese and Chinese communities after the 1900 Chinatown Fire. He quit that newspaper and bought out the Yamato Shimbun in 1905, rechristening it Nippu Jiji the following year. In 1909, he took up the cause of exploited Japanese plantation workers, effectively leading a strike that resulted in his first imprisonment. Over the following decades, he made the Nippu Jiji the most successful Japanese-American newspaper on the islands. His articles championed Japanese-language schools, reported on US-Japan relations, and became renowned in the community. After the attack on Pearl Harbor he was interned in American concentration camps on the mainland. After the war, he returned to Hawai'i and naturalized in 1952. Soga's autobiography was first serialized in the Hawai Times from 8 October 1946 to 2 July 1948 in 309 parts. This edition is expanded with a chronological table of Japanese immigration, a list of Japanese warships that had arrived in Hawai'i, and a roster of Japanese consuls. Matsuda 95. Octavo. With 16 halftone photographic plates, tables in text; errata slip pasted in index, text in Japanese. Original brown cloth-pattern paper boards, spine lettered in green, front board blind-stamped with Hawai'ian geometric pattern, rear board blind-stamped with mahiole device, colour fish-pattern endpapers. Joints a little rubbed, a few tidemarks on top and bottom edge, contents clean: a very good copy indeed.…
