The Chinese in California, 1850–1925 <http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/award99/cubhtml/>. Created and maintained by the University of California, Berkeley (Bancroft Library and Ethnic Studies Library), and the California Historical Society. Reviewed April 1–15, 2005.
The Chinese in California, 1850–1925 is a trove of some eight thousand items that document the lives of Chinese Californians. The great strength of this collection is the wide range of visual materials; photographs, original art, cartoons, and other illustrations. Letters, excerpts from diaries, business records, and legal documents, as well as pamphlets, broadsides, speeches, sheet music, and other printed matter, round out the collection.	1
The Chinese in California is organized into nine themed galleries: Chinese and Westward Expansion; four on San Francisco's Chinatown (space and architecture, work and politics, "a world apart," and "strangers looking in"); Chinese communities outside of San Francisco; Agriculture, Fishing, and Related Industries; the Anti-Chinese Movement and Chinese Exclusion; and Sentiment concerning the Chinese, Illustrations from Periodicals. The collection is introduced by a historical narrative of Chinese immigration and settlement in California; each gallery is introduced by a shorter thematic headnote.	. . .
