... In Farewell to Manzanar, by Jeanne Wakatsuki-Houston and James Houston, Jeanne tells the true story of her familys and her experience while forcibly sent to an internment camp in Manzanar, located in the Owens Valley of California, and how their lives were affected both during and after being in this camp. While separated from the patriarch of the family, Ko Wakatsuki, they face many hardships and much hatred during some of their struggle in Manzanar. ... Their first meal in Manzanar was an insult to the Japanese people, but they would never say so because they are polite, respectful people. ... All of these things kept them busy throughout the long days in Manzanar. ... Gradually, all of the chaos subsides a bit and the Wakatsukis become accustomed to their lives in Manzanar. ... While it definitely did not make up for being held prisoner; it did make the Manzanar experience more bearable. ... Her husband, James Houston, helped her face her past and return to Manzanar with their children.
