Silent Honor
3 journalers for this copy...
The book has a touch of a dime novel, but even so it was quite interesting because it is about the Japanese population living in California before and after the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941.
Hiroko has come from Japan four months earlier to live with her uncle in California "....... for an education and to make her father proud", when the bombardment happens.
"…Danielle Steel portrays not only the human cost of that terrible time in history, but also the remarkable courage of a people whose honor and dignity transcended the chaos that surrounded them.”
The book, however, can't hold a candle to David Guterson's novel "Snow Falling On Cedars"
