Following the Pearl Harbor attack, the lives of Japanese Americans across the continent were changed forever. In this "illuminating and spirited portrait" (Publishers Weekly), the author of The Boys in the Boat traces the journey of Rudy Tokiwa, Fred Shiosaki, and Kats Miho, who volunteered for the 442nd Regimental Combat Team and were deployed to France, Germany, and Italy, where they were asked to do the near impossible. Daniel James Brown Woven also shares the inspiring story of Gordon Hirabayashi, a conscientious objector whose case reached the Supreme Court.
