About Bridge to the Sun
One of the last, great untold stories of World War II, Bridge to the Sun by Bruce Henderson— #1 New York Times bestselling author and military historian—tells the saga of the Japanese American U.S. Army soldiers who fought in the Pacific theater, as their families back home in America were being rounded up and held in government internment camps. It is a gripping, true tale of courage, sacrifice and adventure. Gerald Yamada, President of the Japanese American Veterans Association (JAVA), wrote a personal and stirring Afterword.
