Recenzii

“An exemplary work of social history research. Dr. Inouye makes the world(s) of the Nikkei in inter-war New York come alive.”
—Mae Ngai, Columbia University

"Daniel Inouye'sDistant Islandsis an important, foundational, and nuanced history of the Nikkei diaspora in the NYC region. In this Empire metropolis Japanese migrants with different backgrounds gain distinctive relations to European Protestant Atlantic World money, status, and elite culture while also grappling with different degrees of class-inflected American othering of Japanese and Asians. Inouye weaves an insightful, urban story of lives impacted by conflicted social-cultural cleavages pulled from his many interviews and meticulous archival research."
—John Kuo Wei Tchen, Inaugural Clement Price Chair of Public History & Humanities, Rutgers University-Newark

"
A deeply researched and well-written study of a community that has been an outlier in the field of immigration and ethnic history. . . . The book uses unusual material to uncover the history of a small community, providing an interesting way of thinking about the field."
—Hasia R. Diner, Paul And Sylvia Steinberg Professor of American Jewish History, New York University
