The Two Worlds of Jim Yoshida [*SIGNED*]

[nice tight clean copy, appears unread, with no discernible wear; the jacket is also nice and clean, with a tiny closed tear at the top of the front panel and a long vertical crease in the front flap]. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author on the verso of the half-title page: "For / Hal Gefsky, / With my warmest / personal regards / Aloha, / Jim Yoshida / Honolulu, Hawaii / March 21, 1973." Memoir by the American-born author, a star athlete in high school who unfortunately traveled to Japan to deliver his father's ashes to the family burial plot, and was trapped there by the outbreak of World War II. He was "forced to serve against his will in the Imperial Japanese Army in China," and when he finally made it back to Japan at the end of the war he discovered that he had lost his American citizenship, and had to prove his loyalty to the U.S. in order to regain it.
