Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines Japanese immigration and naturalization in early 20th century America, focusing particularly on the experiences of Japanese immigrants in California and the challenges they faced in assimilation. The author presents a detailed account of the "gentleman's agreement" of 1907, a pact between the United States and Japan that restricted Japanese immigration to America and attempted to curb anti-Japanese sentiment on the West Coast. Despite the agreement, the author argues that Japanese immigrants continued to face discrimination and economic hardship, leading to social and political tensions that would later culminate in the incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II. Through extensive research and analysis, this book sheds light on the complex history of Japanese immigration in America and its lasting impact on both Japanese American communities and the nation as a whole.
