The Making of Asian America: A History by Erika Lee
5.0
substance//*****
This book answered so many of my long held questions about Asians in the Americas.
Why is there a huge Hakka population in The Caribbeans?
How did the 3rd/4th/5th generation or Asian descent in South American countries end up there?
How was the US government able to quickly move the Japanese Americans into internment camps during WWII?
style//*****
Professor Lee's informative research and explication of Asians in both North and South American countries is both enlightening and easy reads for those interested in the subject.

This is the textbook I wish I had when I learned US History.
It's an infinitely more informative and accurate history than the paltry 2 lines that cover the transcontinental railroad labor and the Gold Rush era from my childhood.
