Carey McWilliams / PREJUDICE Japanese Americans Symbol of Racial Intolerance

Description: PREJUDICE: Japanese Americans: Symbol of Racial Intolerance Author: McWilliams, Carey Title: PREJUDICE: Japanese Americans: Symbol of Racial Intolerance Publication: Boston: Little, Brown and Company, 1944 Description: Hardcover. An early printing. S.I. Hayakawa's copy, with his marginal pencil markings and his ink stamp to the front flyleaf. A complex figure, who served as president of San Francisco State University and then as U.S. Senator from California from 1977 to 1983, Hayahawa (1906-92) believed that the imprisonment of Japanese Americans during World War II eventually worked to their advancement and strongly opposed reparations.Important and influential, this book provides a historical sketch of the Japanese in California drawn largely from secondary materials, and a first-hand description of the attitudes that arose following the attack on Pearl Harbor and the actions taken by the War Relocation Authority after the issuance of Executive Order 9066, which set into motion the removal and imprisonment of 110,000 Japanese Americans living on the West Coast.Octavo: [x], 337 p. Original red cloth binding, with black titles. A bit of dust staining to the top edge, with some moderate sun fading along the spine; else very good. Accompanied by the pamphlet "What We're Fighting For": Statements By United States Servicemen about Americans of Japanese Descent (circa 1945). Very good.
