| Juli Ann completed her Master's
Degree with a Thesis on the history of the Nishimuta family. This is an
informative history created through oral interviews with family members.
They were born more than 10,000 miles apart in the late
1800s. Two oceans and the continent of North America separated them,
Kutaro Nishimuta, a Japanese gentleman, and Louisa Lorenzo, a beautiful
Spanish woman. Discover how the Far East meets the European West in this
incredible true story of two poor immigrants. Follow the travels and
drama that brought these two opposites together in the heartland of
America. Learn about the negative consequences of their interracial
love. Louisa held a faith in God that would help them survive, but their
spiritual strength and courage would be severely tested by prejudice,
poverty, and the world at war. This is the true story of an Issei
immigrant and his multicultural Nisei family. They lived and farmed in
rural Oklahoma and survived the Great Depression. It is important to
understand the enormous impact of Pearl Harbor and World War II on the
life of this Japanese American family. This is an oral history; the
words of their multicultural children paint a picture of love, faith,
and inspiring optimism. The author investigates and explores this
multicultural family through social, political, economic, and cultural
analysis, giving us a better understanding of their unique lives.
