An Illustrated History of the Chinese in America

By Ruthanne Lum McCunn. San Francisco: Design Enterprises of San Francisco, 1979. Bibliography, index. 133 pages. $6.95.

Designed essentially for young readers, this undocumented but extensively illustrated narration of the history of the Chinese, especially in California, makes for timely and absorbing reading. Subjects include the migration and employment of Chinese, the anti-Chinese movement, and the rise of Chinatowns.
