Description
The pamphlet talks about when, in the winter and spring of 1942, 70,000 American citizens, charged with no crime, were torn from their homes, forced to leave their properties, businesses and professions, and were sent to concentration centers in semi desert regions where they lived under armed guards and in barracks unsuited to their family life.
