If you want to write a book on the history of Chinese immigrants in the US, how will you set out the book the be? What will you include? Iris Chang’s Chinese American achieved this goal brilliantly.
It is the best book I have ever read regarding the history of Chinese in the US. It provides an epic picture of a group people surviving and struggling in a new land, facing hostile treatment and discrimination. It is about a people with great ingenuity, creativity and deep culture heritage.

The success of this book comes from passion, devotion, hard work and deep historical knowledge. Bringing all these together, this book is a masterpiece.
