This is the "Simplified Chinese" version of An Interpretive History of the Valiant Chinese in America written by the author. It is a thoughtful interpretation, rather than a simple narration, of the Chinese both as a group of immigrants and as a minority from Asia seeking for a better tomorrow in the land of the United States. It reveals the hardships and the uncommon encountering of the early arrivals, and explains the processes and changes that they had endured for survival. Besides describing most of the harsh experiences and the hard earned respects along a lengthy path of struggles, the author also provides, or attempts to give, a comprehensive insight on events that unfairly happened to all the Chinese, and most conditions did not improve until they as a downgraded race have been lawfully recognized and cordially accepted as citizens with the basic sharing of rights like the others. Needless to say, this book recounts the different stages of the Chinese difficulties and struggles from the past to the present, before they could gradually ascend as a whole. However, in examining issues regarding discrimination and other injustice, it ventures to cover not only the historical facts of how-things-happened, but also explores the interrelated causes of why-things-happened. Another distinctive feature of this book was the focus of the main story line of the valiant group among the Chinese immigrants in the 20th century as well as among the Chinese-Americans, who initially started to explore ways to change the fate for themselves and for their motherland, i.e., China, especially the efforts they made since the Second World War and thereafter. A major differentiation of itself from a number of similar books on subject of the history of the Chinese in USA, interestingly, is that it reveals the often untold mystery of motivation and confrontation among the Chinese with regard to their views on Chinese politics being debated for support in cities of the United States, and that remained a strangely ongoing phenomena which appeared from day to day in many of Chinese communities; if grouped by status of identities, those involved in the rift were immigrants old and new, sometimes included foreign students from either Taiwan or Hong Kong, and joined by Chinese-Americans by birth or citizens of those who might have legally claimed US citizenship through their own merits. It was an unending fight with polemics among Chinese outside of China. Yet, for whatever intention, a general picture of the crawls showed that whoever took part in such an effort more or less would all entangle themselves with issues uncompromising between the KMT and the CCP of the Chinese politics, which played out aboard in their communal arena. Therefore, to elaborate and discuss that, topics related to events in the United States, in Taiwan, and in the mainland of China are reviewed. As for the bravery of the so-called "valiant", it is understandably meant to refer to those who had dared to fight against injustice, dared to pursue their ideal, and dared to take action. In short, it is also a metaphor to honor those who fit such a meaning in the long struggle of improving the status for all the Chinese in America, since this book is about all of them who came to USA in seeking dreams as a start, and for whose who stride along as descendants of the early forefathers; no matter immigrants or citizens they might be, they all need something called "courage". It is always the braves who took the leads and this book is dedicated to the innovative spirit of such few.

This in-depth historical analysis highlights the enormous contributions of Chinese Americans to the professions, politics, and popular culture of America, from the 19th century through the present day. While the number of Chinese Americans has grown very rapidly in the last decade, this group has long thrived in the United States in spite of racism, discrimination, and segregation. This comprehensive volume takes a global view of the Chinese experience in the Americas. While the focus is on Chinese Americans in the United States, author Jonathan H. X. Lee also explores the experiences of Chinese immigrants in Canada, Mexico, and South America. He considers why the Chinese chose to leave their home country, where they settled, and how the distinctive Chinese American identity was formed. This volume is organized into four sections: historical overview; political and economic life; cultural and religious life; and literature, the arts, and popular culture. Detailed essays capture the essence of everyday life for this immigrant group as they assimilated, established communities, and interacted with other ethnic groups. Alphabetically arranged entries describe the political, social, and religious institutions begun by Chinese Americans and explores their roles as business owners, activists, and philanthropic benefactors for their communities.

A quintessiantially American story chronicling Chinese American achievement in the face of institutionalized racism by the New York Times bestselling author of The Rape of Nanking In an epic story that spans 150 years and continues to the present day, Iris Chang tells of a people’s search for a better life—the determination of the Chinese to forge an identity and a destiny in a strange land and, often against great obstacles, to find success. She chronicles the many accomplishments in America of Chinese immigrants and their descendents: building the infrastructure of their adopted country, fighting racist and exclusionary laws and anti-Asian violence, contributing to major scientific and technological advances, expanding the literary canon, and influencing the way we think about racial and ethnic groups. Interweaving political, social, economic, and cultural history, as well as the stories of individuals, Chang offers a bracing view not only of what it means to be Chinese American, but also of what it is to be American.

Chinese America - Stereotype and Reality is a comprehensive and fascinating textbook about the Chinese in America. Covering more than 150 years of history, the book documents the increasing importance of the Chinese as a social group: from immigration history to the latest immigration legislation, from educational achievements to socio-cultural and political accomplishments. Employing the author's detailed knowledge of the Chinese Diaspora, combined with her meticulous research, the book explores the history, diversity, socio-cultural structures, networks, and achievements of this often-overlooked ethnicity. It highlights how, based on their current position, Chinese Americans are well-placed to play a major role in future relations between China and the United States - the two largest economies of the twenty-first century.
