Book
Within the barbed wire fence : a Japanese man's account of his internment in Canada / Takeo Ujo Nakano, with Leatrice Nakano ; with an afterword by W. Peter Ward.
Takeo Nakano immigrated to Canada from Japan in 1920, later marrying and starting a family in his adopted homeland. Takeo's passion was poetry, and he cultivated the exquisite form known as tanka. Then came the Second World War. Takeo Nakano was one of thousands of Japanese men forcibly separated from his family in 1942 and interned in labor camps in the British Columbia interior. Takeo was one of those who protested the forced labor in the camps and the separation from his family. His punishment was to be sent even further away, to an isolated internment camp in northern Ontario.
