"Asian immigrants and citizens have a long history in the United States. Asian American Children: A Historical Handbook and Guide provides insights into the diverse experience of these children and their families, from their first appearance in the country to the present. Essays review topics such as identity, family structures, labor, gender, and class. Selected primary documents review such topics as racial quotas, biculturalism, and refugees. Using essays and documents, this is the first work to cover the historical and the contemporary experience of these children from a multiplicity of views." "Beginning c. 1850, this work relates the experiences and context in which diverse groups of Asian American children lived their lives. The words of children, included in the primary documents, provide a vivid narrative of immigrant life over the past 150 years. While the lives of children were generally included in historical narratives of the country, a focus specifically on children allows the reader to more fully understand the central place of family in the economic and social development of a nation."--BOOK JACKET.
