Book Description
From the bestselling author of The Island of Sea Women, here is the true story of the one-hundred-year-odyssey of the author’s Chinese-American family, combining years of research with “fascinating family anecdotes, imaginative details, and the historical details of immigrant life” (Amy Tan, bestselling author of The Joy Luck Club). "As engagingly readable as any novel." —Los Angeles Times Book Review In 1867, Lisa See's great-great-grandfather arrived in America, where he prescribed herbal remedies to immigrant laborers who were treated little better than slaves. His son Fong See later built a mercantile empire and married a Caucasian woman, in spite of laws prohibiting interracial marriage. Lisa herself grew up playing in her family's antiques store in Los Angeles's Chinatown, listening to stories of missionaries and prostitutes, movie stars and Chinese baseball teams. See’s family history encompasses secret marriages, entrepreneurial genius, romance, racism, and much more, as two distinctly different cultures meet in a new world in this “lovingly rendered…vivid tableau of a family and an era” (People).

Book Description
"The concept of creating this publication was born more than two decades ago. Time is always of an essence especially while compiling a work of a literary value with such condensed yet informative content richly filled with my personal and intuitive thoughts, visions, reflections and life's learning experience. The first edition was completed and published in 2013. Presenting my original quotes spiced with shades of my colorful philosophical musings - this nonfictional publication is to serve as a guide to enlighten, enrich, warn, advise, inspire and culturally awaken the inexperienced contemporary young generation. I hope that my readers will enjoy this expanded and revised second edition and Third Edition."

Book Description
"The concept and the main idea for this insightful publication is richly filled with Author's intuitive thoughts and visions, life's reflections and original quotes that are spiced with shades of his colorful philosophical musings, to serve as a guide to enlighten, enrich, warn, advise, inspire and culturally awaken the inexperienced young generation of current times." (From the Author)“In this writing, you will discover the many times the Author has been through the terrors of hell and back. It is laden with first-hand events he had lived through that were nothing short of horrific. But in spite of the roller-coaster of dramatic boots he was forced to endure, Alex emerged with a preternatural-like reinforcement that spawned as spirituality endowing him with a resiliency and faith that makes a difference between resignation and triumph.” (From the Foreword)
