    1st printing. Story and art by Susumu Higa. Translated by Jocelyne Allen. A peaceful kingdom until its annexation by the Japan in the 19th century, Okinawa was the site of the most destructive land battle of the Pacific War. Today, the archipelago is Japan's poorest prefecture and unwilling host to 75% of all US military bases in Japan. Okinawa brings together two collections of inter- twined stories by the island's pre-eminent mangaka, Susumu Higa, which reflect on this difficult history and pull together traditional Okinawan spirituality, the modern-day realities of the continuing US military occupation, and the senselessness of the War. Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 544 pages, B&W. Cover price $29.99.
