Reviews

As the first major work in more than forty years on Chinese in Hawai‘i, Chinatown, Honolulu promises to be the principal source about both the community and the ethnic group in the years to come. Well beyond her highly informative discussion on the historical development of Chinatown, Nancy Riley insightfully analyzes the changing status and experiences of Chinese in Hawai‘i, the evolving racial politics in the islands, and Hawai‘i’s pivotal role in U.S. empire building. -- Jonathan Y. Okamura, author of <i>Raced to Death in 1920s Hawai‘i: Injustice and Revenge in the Fukunaga Case</i>
