Zibby is joined by narrative nonfiction author Daniel James Brown to talk about his latest book which has already hit the New York Times bestseller list, Facing the Mountain, which looks at the story of a Japanese-American combat unit fighting at the height of World War II. Daniel shares how his wife helped him conduct over five years of research for the book, what he uncovered when studying first-hand accounts of life in Japanese incarceration camps, and why it was just as important to feature the soldiers' stories as well as those of their families back home.Purchase a copy on Amazon or Bookshop:Amazon: https://amzn.to/2SlpU60Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3vfNoZ1 Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
