From Canton to California
Lucy Bitzer, 1976
Description
A historical treatment of Chinese immigration and settlement in America, specifically for young adults. The length of this manuscript and the number of pictures were early cost-determining factors and certain austerity measures were applied to keep the book within an acceptable price range.
