Americans: The Story Of The 442nd Combat Team is a non-fiction book written by Orville Cresap Shirey. The book tells the story of the 442nd Combat Team, a unit of Japanese-American soldiers who fought for the United States during World War II. The book explores the experiences of these soldiers, who faced discrimination and racism both at home and in the military, but who nevertheless fought bravely and made significant contributions to the war effort. The book covers the unit's training, their battles in Europe, and their eventual return home. It also examines the broader historical context of Japanese-American internment during the war and the struggle for civil rights in the United States. Through interviews, personal accounts, and historical research, Shirey provides a detailed and compelling account of the 442nd Combat Team and their important place in American history. The book is a tribute to the bravery and sacrifice of these soldiers, and a reminder of the ongoing struggle for equality and justice in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
