Muller (law, U. of N. Carolina, Chapel Hill) is the son of a Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany who escaped to the U.S. and were later subjected to some of the same restrictions as West Coast Japanese Americans during WWII. Knowing about the internment of Japanese Americans, Muller was surprised to learn of the Japanese American draft resisters. Drawing on years of research, interviews with the resisters, their families, their supporters, and their detractors, Muller presents this analysis of the draft resisters' experiences, from the arrival of the draft notices in 1944 to the recent debates in the Japanese American community over the choice these young men made over 50 years ago. Academic, but accessible to the general reader. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
