Takei and his team did a fantastic job with this book. I have to admit that I really didn't know much about the Japanese internment camps before this book. Truthfully, I didn't even know they had existed until families were being separated and detained at the Mexico border. This book was written with education on the events being the driving factor and it does this beautifully. He talks about the impact that he saw on his parents vs the impact on he and his siblings. I feel like this should be a must read for everyone.
