Life Behind Barbed Wire

POSTSCRIPT

255 POSTSCRIPT Three years have passed since those of us who were sent to camps on the Mainland returned to Hawaii. This book stems from a series of articles I wrote for the Hawaii Times from January to July 1946. I received encouragement for these pieces as well as criticism. (Some readers felt I had been too candid.) However, many friends advised me to publish the articles in book form—the first public record of the wartime experiences of Japanese in the United States. I followed their advice, although I may have taken longer than they had anticipated. I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Akira Furukawa, who took care of the book binding, and to those who helped me compile information for the appendices.
