Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FOR NONFICTION From New Yorker writer Michael Luo comes a masterful narrative history of the Chinese in America that traces the sorrowful theme of exclusion and documents their more than century-long struggle to belong. ONE OF THE BEST BO…OKS OF THE YEAR: THE NEW YORKER, THE WASHINGTON POST, TIME, BOSTON GLOBE, BLOOMBERG BUSINESSWEEK, KIRKUS REVIEWS, LIBRARY JOURNAL, CHINA BOOKS REVIEW "A story about aspiration and belonging that is as universal as it is profound.Patrick Radden Keefe, author of Say Nothing "A gift to anyone interested in American history. I couldn't stop turning pages."Charles Yu, author of Interior ChinatownIn Strangers in the Land, award-winning journalist Michael Luo tells the story of a people who, beginning in the middle of the nineteenth century, migrated by the tens of thousands to a distant land they called Gum ShanGold Mountain. Americans initially welcomed these Chinese arrivals, but, as their numbers grew, horrific episodes of racial terror erupted on the Pacific coast. Federal lawmakers enacted legislation aimed at excluding Chinese laborers from the country, the first time the United States barred a people based on their race. The Chinese became the countrys earliest undocumented immigrants: hounded, counted, suspected, surveilled.In 1889, while upholding Chinese exclusion, Supreme Court Justice Stephen J. Field characterized them as strangers in the land. Only in 1965 did Americas gates swing open to people like Luos parents, immigrants from Taiwan. Today there are more than twenty-two million people of Asian descent in the United States and yet the stranger label, Luo writes, remains. Drawing on archives from across the country and written with style and sweep, Strangers in the Land is a revelatory and unforgettable American story.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. From New Yorker editor and writer Michael Luo, a vivid, urgent history of two centuries of Chinese exclusion and the birth of anti-Asian feeling in America.In 1889, when the Supreme Court upheld the Chinese Exclusion Acta measure barring Chinese laborers from entering the United States that…remained in effect for more than fifty yearsJustice Stephen Johnson Field characterized the Chinese as a people residing apart by themselves. They were, Field concluded, strangers in the land. Today, there are more than twenty-two million people of Asian descent in the United States, yet this label still hovers over Asian Americans.In Strangers in the Land, Luo traces anti-Asian feeling in America to the first wave of immigrants from China in the mid-nineteenth-century: laborers who traveled to California in search of gold and railroad work. Their communities almost immediately faced mobs of white vigilantes who drove them from their workplaces and homes. In his rich, character-driven history, Luo tells stories like that of Denis Kearney, the sandlot demagogue who became the face of the anti-Chinese movement, and of activists who fought back, like Massachusetts Senator George Frisbie Hoar and newspaperman Wong Chin Foo.After the halt on immigration in 1889, the Chinese-American community who remained struggled to survive and thrive on the margins of American life. In 1965, when LBJ's Immigration and Nationality Act forbade discrimination by national origin, America opened its doors wide to families like those of Luo's parents, but he finds that the centuries of exclusion of Chinese-Americans left a legacy: many Asians are still treated, and feel, like outsiders today. Strangers in the Land is a sweeping narrative of a forgotten chapter in American history, and a reminder that Americas present reflects its exclusionary past.
