Description: "While not a scholarly work, this beautiful book of photographs of the Japanese experience in Peru from the 1890s to the present offers invaluable images of daily life, cultural events, school work, and the hard times of deportation and internment during World War II. Compiled by the leading authorities on the Japanese in Peru and one of the nation's most prominent photographers, this lavish volume was published by the Peruvian government as a testimony to the role of the Japanese immigrant in Peruvian society. As such, it marks a complete evolution from the dark days of more than half a century ago"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
