California's Greatest Curse is a historical non-fiction book written by Jennett Blakeslee Frost in 1879. The book explores the history of California and its struggles with the Chinese immigrant population during the late 19th century. Frost delves into the social and economic impact of the Chinese on the state and the discrimination they faced from the white population. The book also covers the various laws and policies that were enacted to limit Chinese immigration and their rights in California. Frost argues that the Chinese were unfairly targeted and that their presence in the state was not the root cause of California's problems. The book provides a unique perspective on the history of California and the Chinese immigrant experience during this time period. Overall, California's Greatest Curse is an informative and thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the history of California or the Chinese immigrant experience in America.Complete In One Volume.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
