'The autobiography of a Chinese American woman who triumphs over obstacles of discrimination and ignorance is a tribute to any immigrant who has been able to take the best of the old world and the new world, and to use those lessons to succeed. The book's value as an historical document for Chinese Americans is invaluable' - Amerasia Journal 'A fascinating narrative, not only because of the courage and humour which shine through every page of the book, but also because it shows how the members of a typical Chinese family can adapt themselves to American conditions and take their part in the national life of the United States without losing the essentials of the cultural heritage which they rightly prize' - Times Literary Supplement (For this item please quote stock ID 25626)
