Publisher's Synopsis

Combining big-picture World War II history with a little-known event in American history, this book reveals the war-time hysteria against the Japanese and Germans in America, the secrets of FDR's tactics to rescue high-profile POWs in Germany and Japan, and above all, 'is about identity, allegiance, and home, and the difficulty of determining the loyalties that lie in individual human hearts' (Texas Observer).
