Download or read book American Hiro written by Jack McCallum and published by Diversion Books. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth biography of the famed Japanese American restaurateur, his rags to riches story, his determination in business, and his zest for life. “Traveling the world with my father, watching him interact with people, famous and ordinary, observing up close his balls-out sense of adventure, and having a larger-than-life personality to live up to had a profound effect on me and the formation of my character.” —From the foreword by Steve Aoki, Grammy–nominated producer and Billboard Award–winning DJ Hiroaki “Rocky” Aoki was a man who succeeded in everything he pursued—from world-class wrestling, ballooning, underwater exploration, and car and boat racing to founding Benihana. Rocky’s passion for life infected all around him and accelerated the exchange of Japanese culture and cuisine with America. His rags to riches story, from dishwasher and busboy to owner of a multi-million-dollar restaurant empire, is a wild American dream realized unlike any other. Running and expanding the business would be all-consuming for most people—not to mention battling the perception of otherness—but Rocky would not be deterred. His determination for the business rivaled the drive he demonstrated in his other interests, some of which almost killed him. American Hiro by Jack McCallum, who had full access to Rocky Aoki and those in his enterprises, provides the only full inside account of one of the most famous symbols of cultural assimilation and capitalistic zeal in modern US history—a champion in business, sports, and life.

In Code of Silence, friends Cooper, Hiro, and Gordy witness a robbery … but when it appears several cops are behind the crime, they aren’t sure who they can trust. Telling the truth could be deadly. But remaining silent could mean an innocent man’s life. In Back Before Dark, the three friends find themselves caught in a trap that leads to Gordy’s abduction. As time goes by without any clues or messages from the kidnapper, Cooper takes things into his own hands. But his choices could place him in even greater danger. Finally, in Below the Surface, what was meant as a peaceful summer vacation turns frightening when Hiro is convinced she witnessed a murder on the lake.

Kazu says he's innocent, and begs for Hiro's help, but his story gives Hiro reason to doubt the young shinobi's claims. When the shogun summons Hiro and Father Mateo, the Portuguese Jesuit priest under Hiro's protection, to find the killer, Hiro finds himself forced to choose between friendship and personal honor. The investigation reveals a plot to assassinate the shogun and overthrow the ruling Ashikaga clan. With Lord Oda's enemy forces approaching Kyoto, and the murderer poised to strike again, Hiro must use his assassin's skills to reveal the killer's identity and protect the shogun at any cost. Kazu, now trapped in the city, still refuses to explain his whereabouts at the time of the murder. But a suspicious shogunate maid, Saburo's wife, and the shogun's stable master also had reasons to want Saburo dead. With the shogun demanding the murderer's head before Lord Oda reaches the city, Hiro and Father Mateo must produce the killer in time . . . or die in his place. Susan Spann's Blade of the Samurai is a complex mystery that will transport readers to a thrilling and unforgettable adventure in sixteenth-century Japan.

Download or read book Hiro's War written by Rebecca Taniguchi and published by . This book was released on 2021-05 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rarely has a novel so vividly depicted the horror of U.S. internment camps of the 1940s, nor has one revealed the story of feisty Hiroshi Koga, who discovers love and friendship amid the morass. After winning the affections of Ruth Nakamura, Hiroshi befriends his former rival in love, and when Uncle Sam calls Japanese Americans to serve, both men volunteer to prove their loyalty to the very country that imprisoned them because of their race.Aging Hiro reveals the story of how he rose to staff sergeant in the segregated 100th Battalion/ 442nd Regional Combat Team, leading his comrades with distinction. In the final days of the war, Hiro's friend is killed while on patrol with their beloved platoon leader. Angry and confused, Hiro turns on Lieutenant Ando, and their misunderstanding escalates when Hiro is unfairly court-martialed by their spiteful Caucasian colonel and Ando does nothing to help. Forty years later, the veterans struggle to forgive themselves and each other. Haunted by their past, Ando begins a long battle for justice on Hiro's behalf as the nation offers redress for the internment. The lieutenant's pursuit becomes a race to the finish as Hiro nears death, and secrets long held by Ando, Hiro, and Ruth are exposed, inflicting pain while offering a path to redemption. Hiro's War is essential reading for anyone concerned with the challenges of realizing the American dream of liberty and justice for all, of understanding what compassion and courage demand of us as individuals and as a nation.
Download or read book Words Out of Wood written by M. de Laat and published by Eburon Uitgeverij B.V.. This book was released on 2009 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two dozen or so wooden tablets discovered on Easter Island late in the nineteenth century are all that remain of rongorongo--a series of glyphs thought to be the writing system of the island's lost people. In Words Out of Wood, M. de Laat explores the construction and use of these enigmatic figures and makes a compelling case that rongorongo, despite its resistance to decipherment, constitutes nothing less than a fully developed script. Reproduced here in clear, full-page illustrations, the glyphs stand alongside the great moai statues as lasting monuments of the inventiveness and artistry of the remote Pacific island.

Download or read book Queensland written by Ralph Griffith and published by XAK Media Inc.. This book was released on 2021-12-26 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too-Sweet, a southern girl with a yen for adventure, flees Japan and lands in the sun-kissed embrace of Queensland, Australia. Ten miles north of Cairns, she stumbles into a wild business venture with her Yakuza partner and an endearingly shady Japanese counterfeiter. Their shopping list? A crocodile farm, a jungle boat, a twenty-unit motel, and—wait a giant bar. But this isn’t just any bar. Too-Sweet christens it, The Naked Pygmy, because apparently, in Australia, dwarf tossing at bars is a national sport. And why not? It’s a land where kangaroos box, wombats moonwalk, and emus have perfected the art of side-eye. Now, here’s the twist: Living on Too-Sweet’s property are pygmies from Papua New Guinea. And these aren’t your run-of-the-mill pygmies, they’re cannibals. Forget dwarfs; Too-Sweet’s got her own pint-sized crew ready for action. Get ready for a novel packed with belly laughs, heart-thumping action, and characters so outrageous they’d make a kangaroo blush. In Queensland, the only thing more dangerous than the crocs is Too-Sweet’s determination to turn chaos into profit.
