About the book

First-hand account of the life of a female Okinawan immigrant in the New World. It spans nearly a centure from Hana Kaneshi's early life in a small viallage to a sugar plantation in Peru and its capital, Lima; to her dangerous trek through Mexico and the California desert to enter the U.S. and start a new life, this time in the Imperial Valley.
