The first empirical and comprehensive study on a Midwest Asian American community, it reconstructs the history of Chinese Americans in St. Louis from the mid-19th century to the present. Drawn upon evidence from archival manuscripts, census data, media reports, oral interviews, and mortuary records, it portrays the saga of a Chinese American community from a Chinatown centered around “Hop Alley” to a “cultural community,” a community without physical boundaries but identifiable through active community organizations and cultural activities, as defined by the author.

Ling’s cultural community model has been [http://www.historycooperative.org/cgi-bin/justtop.cgi?act=justtop&url=http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/ahr/110.3/br_68.html warmly received by the academic community]. Dr. Ronald H. Bayor, editor of The Journal of American Ethnic History, praises that “Huping Ling provides a well-documented account of the development of a cultural community among Chinese Americans in St.Louis. The book offers an insightful history of the relatively unstudied Midwestern urban Chinese and provides a model for understanding other Chinese as well as non-Asian American communities.” Dr. Roger Daniels, Charles Phelps Taft Emeritus Professor of History at University of Cincinnati and a prominent pioneer scholar of Asian American studies, comments that “Huping Ling’s study of Chinese St. Louis is a breakthrough volume, the first full-scale study of the ethnic group in a Midwestern American city. Only by examining the evolution of such smaller communities can the full scope of the Chinese diaspora in America be understood.” Dr. Franklin Ng, president of the Association of Asian American Studies, notes that “Chinese St. Louisans provides a much-needed addition to the published literature about Chinese Americans. It skillfully places the Chinese in St. Louis in the context of urban history and the Chinese American historiography. Ling’s presentation of the cultural community’ is important as it will help to further thinking about Chinese communities that are not in the form of traditional Chinatowns. It is a wonderful study, rich with insight and sophistication.”

It has also been warmly embraced by the St. Louis community. It has been featured in The World Journal (Jan. 15, 2006), the St. Louis Post-Dispatch (Feb. 2, 2005), West End Word (Feb. 4, 2005), St. Louis Chinese American News, St. Louis Chinese Journal ,the Overseas Chinese World, River Front Times, and appeared at “Charles Brennan Show” KMOX 1120, “Voice of St. Louis” (Feb. 4, 2005) and KWMU 90.7 (NPR in St. Louis) “St. Louis on the Air” (July 5, 2005). It is considered as a classic work on Asian communities in the St. Louis area, having been consulted with in numerous discussions on racial relations in St. Louis. The most recent example is Bill McClellan’s article “Let’s Go back to the Future at Ballpark Village Site” on the front page of Metro section, March 31, 2008 issue of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, which cites the book and the commentary article she wrote for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch to advocate a revival of Chinese business at the ballpark Village site.

It has been acknowledged as a groundbreaking work on Asian American community in the Midwest. An article derived from it, “Reconceptualizing Chinese American Community in St. Louis: From Chinatown to Cultural Community” (Journal of American Ethnic History Vol. 24, No. 2 Winter 2005), won the Best Article Award at the 48th Annual Missouri Conference on History in 2006. Dr. Ling's involvement in and service to the St. Louis Asian American community has won her the inclusion as one of the most significant Chinese Americans by the St. Louis Chinese American News (2001). Dr. Ling has been invited to give numerous presentations and book signings at schools, libraries, and communities nationally and internationally.

''Emerging Voices: Experiences of Underrepresented Asian Americans'' is a pioneering interdisciplinary work. It explores the life experiences of the smaller or less studied Asian American groups: Burmese, Hmong, Indonesians, Kashmiri, Laotian, Mong, Romani, Thai, and Tibetan.
Unlike the earlier and larger groups of Asian immigrants to America, many of whom made the choice to emigrate to seek better economic opportunities, many of the groups discussed in this volume fled war or political persecution in their homeland. Forced to make drastic transitions in America with little physical or psychological preparation, questions of “why am I here,” “who am I,” and “why am I discriminated against,” remain at the heart of their post-emigration experiences.
Bringing together eminent scholars from a variety of disciplines, this collection considers a wide range of themes, including assimilation and adaptation, immigration patterns, community, education, ethnicity, economics, family, gender, marriage, religion, sexuality, and work.
