First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Harvard University Press. Cambridge. 1971. 237 pages. First edition, first printing. Book and DJ are fine. While not flawless; it's not far off. Small rub at upper shoulder of DJ edge; tiny speck to green cloth on binding. An incredible copy in bright, tight and seemingly unread condition. During Reconstruction, white plantation owners imported Chinese sharecroppers in the hope of replacing their black laborers. Classed with "black" status, the Chinese saved their monies and soon became owners of small grocery stores. Loewen details their astounding transition from poor and oppressed to independent and successful. An uncommon study of race relationships in the Deep South by celebrated and prolific American sociologist, historian, and author James W. Loewen; this being his first book. A selection of the Harvard East Asian Series. Fine/Fine. Rare in collectible condition.
