A profile of the pre-war Japanese community in Wapato, Washington, and the effects Executive Order 9066 had on community members. "A rail ticket and $25 was all the internees were given when the gates were opened." The author also profiles Esther Short Boyd and Dan McDonald, who were strong advocates for Japanese members of the Wapato community.
