Isaac "Ike" Shapiro was in his early teenage years when he experienced the American fireboming of Japan firsthand in the early 1940s, as he describes in his autobiography “Edokko: Growing Up a Foreigner in Wartime Japan.” With World War II suddenly at their doorstep, Isaac’s family was forced to move from city to city in the war-torn nation.
