DESCRIPTION:Nothing Left in My Hands: The Issei of a Rural California Town\
 , 1900-1942 by Kazuko Nakane.\n Nakane's detailed research and firsthand i
 nterviews with those still living in the Pajaro Valley in the early 1980s 
 piece together a portrait of early Japanese American experiences\, from th
 e lives of buranketto men (bachelors who traveled from job to job with lit
 tle more than a blanket around their shoulders) to the arrival of brides f
 rom Japan to the discrimination Japanese faced in the form of anti-immigra
 nt legislation and their banishment to internment camps during World War I
 I. Without Nakane's prescient efforts to preserve these stories\, much und
 erstanding of early immigrant experience in this country would have been l
 ost. Now\, with its republication\, Nothing Left in My Hands is again avai
 lable to those interested in the history of California's immigrants and th
 eir contributions to American culture.\n\nFor more information: mail@jamsj
