This is a vivid graphic history of the Chinese experience in North America over the last 150 years, beginning with the immigration of Chinese to ‘Gold Mountain’ (the Chinese colloquialism for North America) in the 1800s that resulted in decades of discrimination, subjugation, and separation from loved ones. Based on historical documents and interviews with elders, the book is also the epic story of the Wong family as they traverse these challenges with hope and determination, creating an immigrant’s legacy in their new home of North America.
David H.T. Wong is an architect and historian.
