Note
"In the early twentieth century, between one-third and one-half of all native-born Chinese American citizens left the United States for China under the assumption that they would never permanently return to the land of their birth. American Exodus explores this little-known aspect of modern Chinese and American history through the lives of the thousands of Chinese Americans who settled in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, and the Pearl River Delta"--Provided by publisher.
