Poston Camp II, Block 211 - Daily Life in an Internment Camp

Jack Matsuoka's Poston Camp II, Block 211 - Daily Life in an Internment Camp is a singular, deeply personal comic series from Japan Publications, launched in 1974. Through Matsuoka's own experiences, it chronicles the everyday routines and resilience of Japanese Americans incarcerated at the Poston War Relocation Center in Arizona during World War II.
