Book Review of Everything You Need to Know About Asian American History

Everything You Need to Know About Asian American History
CocoCee avatar reviewed on + 404 more book reviews


Trying to smush every version of an Asian American in one books is monumentous. Published in 1996, the overall flavor of the book comes from the victim's viewpoint, as if only Asian Americans had a hard start in the United States. That opinion was popular in the 1990's. Ten years later, it's quite embarrassing to read this book and be Asian American. It's actually better to find current information on being Asian American and our history on the Web.
