iv, 87 pages. Reproductions of black and white photos. "I have written this booklet because I have found so many people know almost nothing about the evacuation of the Japanese Canadian people from the west coast during the war. At the coast, after Pearl Harbor, a Japanese family might be living next door to you and a few days later they were gone and no one knew where, particularly after they left the exhibition buildings in Vancouver. I feel sorry this story has to be told, in part, so that such a thing does not happen to any other group of people in this country. Tashme was established at the Fourteen Mile Ranch and the first families arrived in September, 1942. I have written mostly about the high school and its students but everyone in the community was effected by the events I have recorded." - from Preface.

Tre ragazzi di Genova si erano appena tuffati nelle acque di Portofino, quando uno di essi, Giuseppe Arboit, si senti afferrare a una gamba e trascinare verso il fondo, era un grossissimo polpo. Alle sue grida Aldo Occhipinti gli si avvicino cercando di riportarlo alla superficie ma a sua volta fu preso dai tentacoli. Allora il terzo, Edilio Belisardi, coraggiosamente si getto sul gigantesco polpo e gli rovescio la testa obbligandolo ad allentare la stretta. Gli stessi ragazzi, poco più tardi, si tuffarono di nuovo e catturarono il mostro." "Miracolo alla televisione. Anna Williams di Wichita Falls (Texas), paralizzata da un paio d'anni, e improvvisamente guarita mentre con il marito e i bimbi assisteva a uno spettacolo di carattere sacro, trasmesso dalla TV. Toccati da una scena commovente, i due sposi dissero, Preghiamo e recitarono un'orazione. Anna senti una voce, Alzati e cammina. Provo un senso di benessere; si levo dalla carrozzella e comincio a camminare con passo fermo e sicuro.".
