“This is well worth reading and it should become a standard reference book on the history of the Lordsburg prison facility. I was a prisoner at another camp in Heart Mountain, Wyoming, at the same time Camp Lordsburg existed... Mollie writes in a manner that makes one feel like it was for real.”

“I’m honored to know the author of this historical, marvelous book, and highly recommend it!”

“Without books like this by Mollie Pressler, written after 40 years of research, there would still be no official account of the internment of Japanese and holding of foreign POWs at Camp Lordsburg. Thanks to Mollie’s efforts, the stories of this time period will be kept alive and shared with future generations.”

“Sad times in America’s history. Informative and well researched — feels like you were there.”

“Camp Lordsburg is the definitive text on this historical location during WWII. This documentation by a lifelong educator and historian is full of details. Pressler’s personal files of historical material form a strong basis for the writing. Her knowledge continues to be a valuable resource to Japanese Americans and the general public who want to learn about this historical place.”
