Synopsis
This memoir conveys the experiences, first of my parents and subsequently of our family, the only Chinese people living in Macon, Georgia between 1928 and 1956. It describes our family's isolated existence running a laundry, enduring loneliness as well as racial prejudice for over 20 years, why and how it moved across the continent to live in a Chinese community, and how each family member adjusted to the challenges and opportunities of their new lives.

About the Author
Born in Macon, Georgia, where his family, the only Chinese in the city, lived above their laundry. After moving to California, he majored in psychology at U. C. Berkeley and went on to earn a Ph.D. at Northwestern University. Author of several academic textbooks, including a second edition in 2010 of Alcohol, Other Drugs, and Behavior, he is Professor of Psychology Emeritus at California State University, Long Beach.
Following retirement, he developed a new 'career' studying aspects of Chinese American history that involved publication of 4 books, "Southern Fried Rice: Life in A Chinese Laundry in the Deep South" in 2005 followed by "Chinese Laundries: Tickets to Survival on Gold Mountain," and "Chopsticks in the Land of Cotton: Lives of Mississippi Delta Chinese Grocers," before his latest book in 2010, "Sweet and Sour: Life in Chinese Family Restaurants."
