Little has been written about Chinese immigrants who have achieved the American immigrants’ dream of economic stability, a leadership role in the community, recognition by fellow Americans, a wife and family, and achievements by the second and later generations. This presentation by Professor Sue Fawn Chung is about three men, who arrived in the American west as teenagers, became proficient in English, were relatively successful financially, married and had a large family, and were well-known and well-liked in the larger Euro- American community.
