Description
“Gripping… Chang has accomplished the seemingly impossible… he has written a
remarkably rich, human and compelling story of the railroad Chinese.―—Peter Cozzens,
Wall Street Journal “The lived experience of the Railroad Chinese has long been elusive...Â
Changâ€s book is a moving effort to recover their stories and honor their indispensable
contribution to the building of modern America.―—The New York Times “A valuable
contribution to the history of the Chinese in North America.―—Kirkus Reviews
“Ambitious…[Changâ€s] writing is vibrant and passionate.―—Publishers WeeklyÂ
“This epic account will stand as the definitive history of how Chinese laborers, including
members of my own family, did monumental work under some of the most difficult physical
circumstances imaginable on a project that would eventually transform our country. Fascinating
and heart-breaking, Ghosts of Gold Mountain is a must read.―— Lisa See, New York Times
best-selling author of On Gold Mountain and Snow Flower and the Secret Fan  “Under
Gordon Changâ€s inspired pen, the unheralded contribution of Chinese laborers in building
Americaâ€s first transcontinental railroad bursts into daylight like a mighty locomotive rushing
from a mountain tunnel. These ‘Railroad Chinese†left a rich legacy of herculean
construction throughout the American West, and by ably sifting through frequently elusive sources,
Dr. Chang brings their individual stories and culture into illuminating focus.―— Walter R.
Borneman, author of Iron Horses: Americaâ€s Race to Bring the Railroads West
 “America is forever indebted to the roughly twenty thousand Chinese workers who built the
western portion of the Transcontinental Railroad. Yet their momentous journeys, their dreams and
travails, the racism that they endured, and their ultimate triumphs and tragedies have remained
only dimly understood and recognized until now. Gordon Chang has finally told their story in a
vivid, insightful, and deeply human way.―— Andrés Reséndez, author of The Other
Slavery “Ghosts of Gold Mountain is a treasure trove of stories, and of exciting scholarship
that answers questions many of us have asked for decades. In this profound and inspiring book,
Chang reveals at last how the West was truly won: by Railroad Chinese who literally united these
American states.―— David Henry Hwang, author of the Tony Award-winning play M.
Butterfly  “Gordon Chang leaves no boulder unturned, nor tunnel unexplored, as he brings
vital detail to the lives of the Chinese railroad workers: ‘ghosts†who are no longer missing
in history, thanks to his meticulous research. After a hundred and fifty years, this book sets the
record straight.―— Helen Zia, author of Last Boat out of Shanghai Read more GORDON H.
