"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.
