Tule Lake, the largest of the ten concentration camps, held the No-no Boys (Japanese Americans who had answered "No" to the so-called Loyalty Questionnaire that was distributed in the camps.) This book gives details on those who decided to renounce their American citizenship and be repatriated to Japan. Though many renounced their citizenship, a significantly smaller group actually went to Japan, and their American citizenship was eventually restored.
