5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent...,
By Jonathan Kunimura (Honolulu, HI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Kodomo No Tame Ni = for the Sake of the Children: The Japanese American Experience in Hawaii (Hardcover)
This books is, in my opinion, the most accurate souce of information ever written on Hawaii's Japanese community. Other authors, such as Takaki, have also written excellent historical guides; however, they are usually mainland-born and don't/can't understand life in Hawaii. "Kodomo No Tame Ni" is a virtual encyclopedia of many lesser-known aspects of the Issei generation, and illustrates the past which has created the atmosphere of modern Hawaii.Anyone interested in discovering the true past of Hawaii's Japanese (as well as Hawaii's other ethnic groups) should definitely get their hands on this collection of stories, which-- due to the growing mainland-ish "Americanization" of Hawaii-- will soon be forgotten. In this day and age, I don't think another book of this sort will ever be written.
