Chinamen At Home is a book written by Thomas Gunn Selby and originally published in 1900. The book is a collection of stories and sketches that offer a glimpse into the lives and culture of Chinese immigrants living in America at the turn of the 20th century. Through vivid descriptions and colorful characters, Selby explores the challenges and hardships faced by Chinese immigrants as they navigate a new and often hostile environment. The stories touch on themes such as discrimination, poverty, and the struggle to maintain cultural identity in a foreign land. The book is also notable for its portrayal of the Chinese-American community as a vibrant and dynamic group, with its own distinct customs, traditions, and values. Selby's writing is at times humorous, at times poignant, and always insightful, offering readers a unique perspective on a little-known aspect of American history. Overall, Chinamen At Home is a fascinating and engaging read that sheds light on an often-overlooked chapter of American history and provides a valuable window into the lives of Chinese immigrants in the early 1900s.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
