ACROSS TWO WORLDS: MEMOIRS OF A NISEI FLOWER GROWER
By Yoshimi "Shimi" Shibata

This is a fresh and fascinating look into a business leader who integrated all elements of his life to adapt to a changing marketplace. A modestly told memoir, Yoshimi Shibata’s narrative spans 100 years and three generations of the Shibata family activity in the local, national and international floriculture industry. In so doing, Across Two Worlds shares the life and business principles central to Shibata’s remarkable experience and provides a touching portrait of the challenges of being a second generation Japanese American who wanted to honor his immigrant parents rich culture while adapting to life in America.
