This scholarly, carefully researched book studies one of the most overlooked minority groups in Americathe Chinese of the Mississippi Delta. During Reconstruction, white plantation owners imported Chinese sharecroppers in the hope of replacing their black laborers. In the beginning they were classed with blacks.

Loewen details their astounding transition from black to essentially white status with an insight seldom found in studies of race relationships in the Deep South.
