Unsubmissive Women: Chinese Prostitutes in Nineteenth-Century San Francisco

From Library Journal:

Tong (U.S. history, Univ. of Toledo) makes extensive use of primary sources and government documents to trace the tragic circumstances of Chinese prostitutes in San Francisco. His focus is the period 1849-82, which represents the first phase of Chinese involvement with the vice trade in California. Chinese men in search of economic relief came to the American West, leaving wives and families behind. The economic hardships of Chinese families at home and the loneliness of Chinese men in California created a thriving market in young Chinese women, most of whom were either indentured or sold by their families or simply kidnapped. This first book-length study of Chinese prostitutes in the American West is a valuable addition to history and women's study collections. Two related works on prostitution in the West are Anne M. Butler's Daughters of Joy, Sisters of Misery (LJ 3/1/85) and Jacqueline B. Barnhart's The Fair but Frail (Univ. of Nevada Pr., 1986).
