Under Special Circumstances is the story of the impact of the World War II evacuation of the Japanese Americans to concentration camps upon the life of seventeen-year-old Mike Murata, a native-born citizen (Nisei), residing with his family on Terminal Island in the Los Angeles harbor on December 7, 1941.

History comes alive with the vivid descriptions of life in the camps, Mike's exploits at the battles of Peleliu and Okinawa, his relationship with his Italian American boyhood friend, Jimmy V., and his affair with the vivacious Kathy Kanai.
