Like so many Japanese Americans born in the years following World War I, Ted Tsukiyama was shaped by the Great Depression, fought with honor in World War II ¿ even as other Japanese Americans were exiled in internment camps ¿ and went on to contribute much to his country¿s success and prosperity. In a life that has spanned nearly a century, he has been a proud member of the U.S. Army¿s 442nd Regimental Combat Team, a military intelligence operative in the jungles of Burma, a groundbreaking Nisei student at Yale Law School, an internationally renowned attorney dubbed ¿Mr. Arbitration¿ and a missionary of the art of bonsai.Now, at age ninety-six, Hawaii¿s Ted Tsukiyama shares his story in his own words. Here is the riveting memoir of a community leader, historian, public speaker and ¿ above all ¿ ardent American citizen.
