Horizon Is Calling by Taro Yashima - First Edition 1947. An autobiographical book in words and pictures, In English and Japanese. Tashima was an acclaimed artist as well as author in two languages.
The 276-page book continues the story of his life in Japan under military rule, this time with added Japanese text. In the book, Yashima describes the operations of the Tokkō and the ongoing industrialization of Japan for war in the 1930s. During one passage, he mourns the loss of his esteemed teacher "Mr. Isobe", who had been killed in action after being drafted into military service. A kindly teacher of the same name also appears in Yashima's award winning children's book from 1956, Crow Boy. The book concludes with musings about leaving Japan to study art overseas.
