Description

380 pages. Selected bibliography. Many wonderful black and white reproductions of archival photos. "For the first time, the history of Canada's pioneer Japanese community is recounted, beginning in the mid-1880s. Begins with the earliest traces of Japanese presence on the West Coast, moves on to the first recorced visits of Japanese to Victoria, and eventual settlement, the WWII exile, and much more. Signed by both authors upon title page. Clean, bright and unmarked with light wear. A nice copy of this long-overdue study. Book
