This is not an ordinary book: it's a BookCrossing book! BookCrossing books are world travelers - they like to have adventures and make new friends...and every once in a while they even write home to say what they've been doing.

Subtitle: The Untold Story of a Nisei Spy
The contributions of the MIS (Military Intelligence Service) were not widely known for a long time due to security concerns: now they are finally getting the recognition they deserve. Many of them worked as translators, but apparently Arthur Komori was actually a spy behind enemy lines.
This looks like an interesting read...and I must have thought so, because I have *two* copies, which both look new. UH Press, so they probably both came from the Hawaii Book & Music Festival at some point. One was purchased in 2015. (Larger photo here.)
Sure enough, the other copy was purchased at the HBMF in 2014.

Reserved for booklady331's nonfiction VBB (round 6).
Withdrawing from booklady331's nonfiction VBB because I can't find it; I'll keep it on "reserved" status and if it resurfaces I may offer it again in a later round.
Found, but I really can't keep two copies. This one will be moving on.
