The Chinese In America is a comprehensive book written by Orville Gibson that delves into the history and experiences of Chinese immigrants in the United States. The book covers the period from the mid-19th century, when Chinese immigrants first arrived in America, to the present day. Gibson provides a detailed account of the challenges faced by Chinese immigrants, including discrimination, racism, and exclusionary laws. He explores the ways in which Chinese immigrants adapted to life in America, and how they contributed to the country's economy and culture. The book also examines the role of Chinese Americans in shaping American society, including their participation in politics, the arts, and other areas of public life. Gibson highlights the achievements of notable Chinese Americans, such as Bruce Lee, Maya Lin, and Yo-Yo Ma, and discusses the contributions of Chinese Americans to fields such as science, technology, and medicine. Overall, The Chinese In America is a thought-provoking and informative book that sheds light on the experiences of a group of people who have often been marginalized in American society. It provides a valuable perspective on the history of immigration in the United States and the ongoing struggle for equal rights and representation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
