The Vietnamese American 1.5 Generation by Sucheng Chan

The Vietnamese American 1.5 Generation by Sucheng Chan

Fifteen gripping and inspiring stories told by young Vietnamese who came to the US after the fall of Saigon and during the "boat people" exodus are contextualized within a succinct history of Vietnam and the international politics of refugee resettlement

"[T]he autobiographical accounts reveal key themes in the Vietnamese American experience and address important historiographical topics..this book contributes to refugee history, an important if understudied aspect of the immigrant experience. Includes a useful bibliography and videography. Highly recommended."
