About this product
Product Information
The first comprehensive, comparative and interpretive history of a highly important historical settlement of Chinese / Chinese Americans in the U.S., Chinese Chicago focuses on three crucial issues that define the Chinese in Chicago: race, transnational migration, and community, and investigates significant historical developments from the arrival of the three Moy brothers in the 1870s to the present "tripartite" communities.

"A unique and valuable study, sure to deepen our understanding of extra-national migratory studies in the development of modernity." —John Kuo Wei Tchen, New York University & Museum of Chinese in America, "A unique and valuable study, sure to deepen our understanding of extra-national migratory studies in the development of modernity."-John Kuo Wei Tchen, New York University & Museum of Chinese in America, "In Chinese Chicago , Huping Ling helps remedy coastal bias with a close examination of the most important Chinese American community in the Midwest. . . Ling's attention to the details of Chinese American Chicago is remarkable and reveals extensive research. . . This thoroughly researched book is a valuable addition to scholarship on Chinese American communities."-Charlotte Brooks, The Journal of American History, "An insightful interpretation of Chinese community as an integral part of a multiethnic Chicago, Ling's book is a landmark addition to the growing Chinese American transnational historiography."—Haiming Liu, author of The Transnational History of a Chinese Family, "A unique and valuable study, sure to deepen our understanding of extra-national migratory studies in the development of modernity."—John Kuo Wei Tchen, New York University & Museum of Chinese in America, "This book is an informative and fascinating read. Richly textured details are skillfully drawn against a larger backdrop. Vivid descriptions of architecture and family and community life give the flavor of neighborhoods. . . It tells a complex, coherent story that is at once about Chicago and about the world its Chinese inhabitants left to help build the city, even as they remained connected to China."--Julia Maria Schiavone Camcho, American Historical Review, "Rich in data and incisive in analysis, this sophisticated and engaging analysis of the Chinese Chicagoans is a unique contribution to the literature on Chinese in the Midwest and a major contribution to the literature on Chinese in America."--Philip Q. Yang, Journal of Social History, "Huping Ling, a prolific and leading scholar of Chinese America, gives us yet another refreshingly exciting book. An excellent community study, it offers fascinating stories about various aspects of Chinese America life in the community, ranging from food, laundry-shop work, school life, and family life in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Chicago. The book situates these stories in larger contexts, specially the Chinese American transnational world, providing extraordinary insights into the connection between the local and the global. It also connects the past to the present by taking an in-depth look at the post-war forces that have transformed and continue to transform Chinese Chicago."—Yong Chen, author of Chinese San Francisco, 1850-1943: A Trans-Pacific Community, "In Chinese Chicago, Huping Ling helps remedy coastal bias with a close examination of the most important Chinese American community in the Midwest. . . Ling's attention to the details of Chinese American Chicago is remarkable and reveals extensive research. . .

The book thus makes an important contribution to research on Asian Americans in the Midwest and Chinese history in Illinois . . . With its attention to the divergent and convergent community dynamics and the meticulous details of individual daily lives, the book makes an interesting read and a valuable historical resource for Chinese immigrant lives in Chicago."--Shanshan Lan, Journal of Illinois History, "In Chinese Chicago , Huping Ling helps remedy coastal bias with a close examination of the most important Chinese American community in the Midwest. . . Ling's attention to the details of Chinese American Chicago is remarkable and reveals extensive research. . . This thoroughly researched book is a valuable addition to scholarship on Chinese American communities."--Charlotte Brooks, The Journal of American History, "By looking at individuals and clans as well as community organizations and relations with other racial and ethnic groups, Ling has provided new insights into the development and evolution of an American Chinese community. It is an extension of her interest in Mid-western Chinese as seen in her book on the Chinese in St. Louis, Missouri, but provides greater details and analyses and demonstrates that many of the older perceptions and generalizations about the Chinese in America are not valid. The general public; university students at all levels of study; and those interested in Asian American studies, ethnic and race relations, urban history, and Chinese history should read this excellent work."--S. F. Chung, Journal of American Studies, "An insightful interpretation of Chinese community as an integral part of a multiethnic Chicago, Ling's book is a landmark addition to the growing Chinese American transnational historiography."-Haiming Liu, author of The Transnational History of a Chinese Family, "Much of what makes Chinese Chicago novel is its focus on the midwestern metropolis, but Ling also makes numerous contributions to our understanding of the Chinese American experience more broadly . . . Chinese Chicago is an excellent example of a transnational community study, which will appeal to most specialists and Chicago locals."--Beth Lew-Williams, Journal of American Ethnic History, "In a meticulously researched and clearly written study, Huping Ling offers a remarkably comprehensive examination of Chinese settlement in Chicago spanning the mid-nineteenth to the late twentieth century."--Barbara M. Posadas, Chinese Historical Review, "This book is an informative and fascinating read. Richly textured details are skillfully drawn against a larger backdrop.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!
