The Tule Lake Relocation Center was the largest and most controversial of the Japanese-American internment camps established during World War II. In 1942, shortly after Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066 with the intention of preventing espionage. The result was forced relocation and incarceration of 110,000 to 120,000 people of Japanese ancestry in the western part of the country. Sixty-two percent of the internees were United States citizens. Internment camps were created in Washington, Oregon, and California. The author Michael Schmidli covers one side of the internees’ life: growing of agricultural produce.
