Abstrakt: Summary: "Liping Zhu takes what others might see as local events and shows that they, in fact, rose from outside events. He also shows how such events can sometimes have multiple impacts on the larger world."-Pacific Historical Review "A superb local history, The Road to Chinese Exclusion also makes fruitful efforts in placing Colorado's increasing hostility toward the Chinese in the larger contexts of American national politics surrounding issues of race, sectional conflict, and the growing prominence of the West. . . . Zhu's study sheds valuable light on the extraordinary importance of the Chinese American experience for understanding the development of the United States in the late nineteenth century."-New Mexico Historical Review.
