Chinese in Minnesota
The reason I read this book is the change I observed between the eating habits when I grew up in a small town in Minnesota in the 1960s to the eating habits of 1980 and later. When I was a child, we rarely ate out, and the choice we had if we did was limited to a couple of cafes and an A@W drive-in. In my travels through the U.S. 1980 to the present and visits to my hometown, I have discovered more people eating out and far greater choices. Ethnic restaurants can be found now in even the smallest towns. The town in Minnesota, St. Peter, where I grew up has had four Chinese restaurants, so I was interested in the history of Chinese immigration to Minnesota. The book was interesting as far as it went. Mostly, the book dealt with Chinese people living and working in the Twin Cities with almost no mention of the rest of the state. I wish the book were more far-reaching.
