5.0 out of 5 stars
Great historical fiction,
By Warren King "psycho-g" (Jersey City, NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Samurai of Gold Hill (Paperback)
I remember borrowing this book so many times from the school library and even did a book report on it. The struggle to adjust to a completely different lifestyle that Koichi and his family go through are poignantly displayed in the book. Having to go from a feudal warrior culture to California's gold rush era is quite a shock to one's cultural sensibilities. I applaud Yoshiko Uchida and this wonderful book of hers.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Samauri of Gold Hill,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Samurai of Gold Hill (Paperback)
I thought it was an easy read but important both from a historical and personal view of whatit must have been like to uproot, put your faith in someone and courageously move half a world away. The anticipated prejudices, trials and tribulations of being the first Japanese to settle in America is well told - simply and colorfully through the eyes of a young boy. Nicely done. |
