Many books have been published that describe what life was like in the remote Japanese American relocation camps; some are firsthand accounts. The first such book, Citizen 13660 by Mine Obuko, was published in 1946. Later publications include I Am an American: A True Story of Japanese Internment by Jerry Stanley (New York: Crown Publishers, 1994); The Invisible Thread by Yoshiko Uchida (New York: Beech Tree Paperback, 1995); Only What We Could Carry: The Japanese American Internment Experience, edited by Lawson Fusao Inada (Berkeley, CA: Heyday Books, 2000); The Children of Topaz: The Story of a Japanese-American Internment Camp by Michael O. Tunnell and George W. Chilcoat (New York: Holiday House, 1996); Remembering Manzanar: Life in a Japanese Relocation Camp by Michael L. Cooper (New York: Clarion Books, 2002); and Japanese American Internment during World War II: A History and Reference Guide by Wendy Ng (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 2002). The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) first televised a program titled Children of the Camps in 1999. Copies are available from the Asian American Telecommunications Association.
