Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1857, Alla Lee, a 24yearold native of Ningbo, China, seeking a better life, came to St. Louis. A decade later, Lee was joined by several hundred of his countrymen from San Francisco and New York who were seeking jobs in mines and factories in and around St. Louis. Most of these Chinese workers lived in boardinghouses located near a street called Hop Alley. In time, Chinese hand laundries, merchandise stores, herb shops, restaurants, and clan association headquarters sprang up in and around that street, forming St. Louis Chinatown. Hop Alley survived with remarkable resilience and energy until 1966 when urban renewal bulldozers leveled the area to make a parking lot for Busch Stadium. A new suburban Chinese American community has been quietly, yet rapidly, emerging since the 1960s in the form of cultural community, where the Chinese churches, Chineselanguage schools, and community organizations serve as the infrastructure of the community.

Download or read book Chinese Americans in the Heartland written by Huping Ling and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-16 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term “Heartland” in American cultural context conventionally tends to provoke imageries of corn-fields, flat landscape, hog farms, and rural communities, along with ideas of conservatism, homogeneity, and isolation. But as the Midwestern and Southern states experienced more rapid population growth than that in California, Hawaii, and New York in the recent decades, the Heartland region has emerged as a growing interest of Asian American studies. Focused on the Heartland cities of Chicago, Illinois and St. Louis, Missouri, this book draws rich evidences from various government records, personal stories and interviews, and media reports, and sheds light on the commonalities and uniqueness of the region, as compared to the Asian American communities on the East and West Coast and Hawaii. Some of the poignant stories such as “the Three Moy Brothers,” “Alla Lee,” and “Save Sam Wah Laundry” told in the book are powerful reflections of Asian American history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saint Louis Of explanation. The reader must not look for a history of St Louis, that is, for a chronological and methodical account of the actions of his life and the events of his reign. This would not, in our opinion, correspond to the general design of the collection in which this essay is to find a place. We have thought it better to make a study of the character and sanctity of this great Christian and royal person, considered under the different aspects of his private and public life. It has been our ideal to present to our readers a series of historic pictures in stained glass, devoted to the life of St Louis.

Download or read book The City of Saint Louis 1891 written by M. M. Yeakle and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The City of Saint Louis, 1891: Growth in Manufactures, Commerce, Resources, Etc;, And Comments on Its Most Valuable Interests The limited scope of this work forbade amplification of the subjects treated, yet a fair measure of justice has been done to all. The object sought is the promotion of the interest of the city of Saint Louis and not that of any person or company of persons. The home reader - presumed to be familiar with the history of the city of Saint Louis - will, nevertheless, find much that will interest him; and all readers will be enabled to trace the beginning, rise and progress of this great city and know much more of its exceptional advantages and superior resources. To the numerous friends of the city throughout the land, many of whom have been visitors and guests, it is to be hoped that these pages will refresh their memories and supply information that will add to their appreciation of our city's resources and promise. Strangers will find in these pages much that will please and instruct while being afforded glimpses only of the most typical of American cities - the chief city of the Great Valley - rising rapidly to greater influence and opulence, the future degree of which can only be inferred from the wealth of the natural resources and great extent of the surroundings. Yet this work could not be made to convey to absent inquirers any proper sense of that characteristic Metropolitan charm - appreciable by the visitor on every side. A general and cordial invitation is extended to all distant readers to come, see and learn for themselves.
