AsiaTown Cleveland: From Tong Wars to Dim Sum by Alan F. Dutka

informative fast-paced

3.0

Really interesting if you want Cleveland-specific history about Chinese and more broadly East Asian immigration to the area. It's one of my favorite neighborhoods in Cleveland and is home to basically all my favorite restaurants, so it was cool seeing how that all developed. However, keep in mind that this is the work of an amateur and the writing is pretty bad. But it's short enough to get through in a sitting or two and contains enough interesting information that I didn't mind as much as if I weren't nostalgically connected to it.
