    A Sad Part of America Continues...
  

*by F***G on Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2023*

This is a rare book that should be part of America's immigrant story next to those of the Japanese-American Internment during the start of WW2. The atrocities committed by those in the majority during the period from about 1850 to 1910 toward the Chinese in California were much worse in fact, and those complicit in these acts ranged from the unemployed to some of the most powerful figures in American government, all in the name of racial superiority complex we witness today.  Whole communities of law-abiding people were burned or trashed, all through means of political shenanigan, one way or another; we are talking about hundreds of Chinatowns in California, with hard-working people forced out by the towns' so-called "law-enforcement" brigades. The ousted fought back by means of the judiciary, but the odds were against them already: by law, these immigrants could not even testify against the Whites in court. Furthermore, they could not be citizens, and therefore no voting rights.  They are essentially non-entities, in a class lower than that of the Blacks. These Asians were here, one way or another, to provide the necessary manual labor that no one, not even the Latinos and Blacks, let alone the Whites, wanted, or possess necessary skill sets for such work.  We are talking about agriculture, laundry, house work, railroad, and more.They, like many of the immigrants we are witnessing coming to America today, were here not by choice, but by circumstances beyond their control and had to survive at all cost, even gambling with their life.  America was their last hope, so they thought. But one way of another, thank God, they like most immigrants here in America, survived. We, as Americans, should commemorate these pioneers who led the way to a richer and more forgiving, pluralistic society. And it is still a work in progress.

    Excellent book with so much information about how Chinese were treated in America.
  

*by D***. on Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2019*

Loving this book, there was a time when this kind of information was so hard to find and now here it is. The history of Chinese in America and some of there achievements and the horrible treatment they received from fellow Americans, including Congress. How the Federal Government sanctioned an Act of Congress in 1882 against a race of people is outrageous but shows you how if you don't learn from your history, you could be doomed to repeating it. While I had personally researched some of the same information, it was nice to see it nicely put together.

    Informative and Very Well Written-- Highly Recommended
  

*by S***O on Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2017*

As a specialist in Sino-Western relations who writes both non-fiction books and historical fiction on this topic I bought this book already armed with a lot of knowledge of the topic.Nevertheless, I learned a great deal! The book is extraordinarily well researched and written. Indeed, for this reader/writer it was both time and money well spent.
