This historic resource study/special history study has been prepared to satisfy in part the research needs as stated in the task directive concerning Manzanar National Historic Site; Historic Resource Study/Special History Study. The purpose of this study is the collection; presentation; and evaluation of historical research pertaining to the historic events that have occurred within the boundaries of the National Historic Site and its surrounding area. It is intended that the study will provide a data base for the National Historic Site’s historic resources that will enable park administrators to formulate appropriate management policies to preserve; protect; and interpret those resources. The wartime evacuation and relocation of 117;000 persons of Japanese ancestry at relocation centers such as Manzanar is a dramatic and significant event in American history. Manzanar is symbolic of this tragic episode and is a reminder that a nation of laws needs constantly to honor its commitment to the concept of individual liberty and the rights of its citizens.

KochI am a pastor and I ordered 19 of these books for my congregation. As part of our 500th Anniversary of the Reformation activities; we are walking through this treatise. I was skeptical about how this would be received by my congregation. I shouldn't be any more. My congregation loves this. I've never had a Bible Study so well attended; nor have I had a Bible Study that spurred such great conversations. This book is well assembled; the notes are very helpful; and with the direction of a pastor; it's accessible to the laity. When Luther took his stand at the Diet of Worms; this treatise was one of the main things for which he was asked to repent. Once my people knew that factoid; they were keenly interested in understand what Luther said here (and why he said it). I commend this anyone who's looking to start reading Luther and hasn't done so before. I also commend this to pastors who might have a small core Bible Study group who would like to tackle something with a bit more "oomph" to it.
