Item Description
The Generations book project was incepted in 1998 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the incorporation of the Japanese Cultural & Community Center of Northern California. It soon burgeoned into a community effort involving over thirty writers, designers, photographers, researchers, and support staff. Through photos and family stories, the book presents the voice and soul of a community, so that even a child who could not yet read, and generations not yet born, can go through it and understand what makes San Francisco Japantown special.
