Chinaman's Chance: An Autobiography is a memoir written by Park, No-Yong, a Chinese-American journalist and author. The book chronicles his life growing up as a Chinese immigrant in America during the early 20th century. Park shares his experiences of discrimination and racism, as well as his struggles to find acceptance and success in a society that often viewed him as an outsider.Park's story begins with his childhood in San Francisco's Chinatown, where he witnessed firsthand the challenges faced by Chinese immigrants in the United States. He recounts his family's struggles to make ends meet and the discrimination they faced from white Americans who viewed them as inferior.As Park grows older, he becomes increasingly interested in journalism and begins writing for various Chinese-American publications. He eventually becomes a respected journalist and author, using his platform to advocate for the rights of Chinese immigrants and to promote understanding between different cultures.Throughout the book, Park reflects on his experiences as a Chinese-American and the challenges he faced in reconciling his identity with the expectations of American society. He also shares his insights into the Chinese-American community and the ways in which it has evolved over the years.Chinaman's Chance: An Autobiography is a powerful and moving memoir that sheds light on the experiences of Chinese immigrants in America and the struggles they faced in building a life for themselves in a new and often hostile environment. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Chinese immigration to the United States and the ongoing struggle for racial equality in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
