Description

This groundbreaking historical account from Routledge examines the untold story of 4,000 Nisei (Japanese Americans) who were caught in the atomic bombing of Hiroshima in August 1945. The book commemorates the 3,000 Nisei who perished in the blast and documents the experiences of approximately 1,000 hibakusha (bomb survivors) who returned to the West Coast after the war. Through meticulous research and survivor testimonies, it reveals how these individuals were branded as foreigners in wartime Japan and as enemies in postwar America, facing profound identity crises and discrimination from both nations. Part of the Transitions: Asia & Asian America series, this work fills a critical gap in World War II history by centring the voices and experiences of Japanese Americans caught between two nations during one of humanity's darkest chapters, offering essential insights into resilience, displacement, and the complex legacy of the atomic age.
