Description

The Powell Street Diary is a personal and poignant account of life in Vancouver's Japantown before the Second World War. Written by Jesse Nishihata, this posthumous diary brings to life the history of a complex time through the eyes of a precocious child.

Through its pages, the diary portrays the experiences of Japanese-Canadians during this period, including their eventual internment. This powerful and thought-provoking book offers a unique perspective on a significant chapter in Canadian history.

Published posthumously in 2017, the Powell Street Diary is a valuable addition to our collection of biographies and memoirs.
