This narrative goes beyond other internment studies in its use of internee interviews and access to Justice and War Department personnel files. Fox concludes that rather than offering a reasonable assessment of the aliens’ danger to United States internal security, the Justice Department incarcerated them – and excluded several hundred United States citizens – because of their German backgrounds, alleged disloyal statements and associations, socioeconomic class, or their characters and personalities.
