This is a well done historical novel about 2 sisters living in Shanghai and then Los Angeles -- it is about China and the US from the late 30's thru the 50's encompassing China and its invasion by the Japanese and the immigration of the Chinese to the US and their treatment by the United States on a personal and political level. I am always amazed at how much US history is left out by our educational system.
