Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book meticulously examines the Manzanar National Historic Site in California, a location of great historical significance during World War II. Beyond its grim use as a Japanese American relocation center, Manzanar's history is as diverse as the land itselfâ"from its ancient Native American roots to the ranching and farming communities that once thrived there. The author uncovers the layers of Manzanar's past, meticulously documenting the site's prehistoric and historic remains, including remnants of the town of Manzanar and the relocation center itself. Through archaeological surveys, mapping, and excavations, the author sheds light on the resilience and resistance of the Japanese American community, the daily life within the center, and the impact of their confinement. This book is not only a valuable historical record but also a testament to the enduring spirit of those who endured this dark chapter in American history.
