Suggestions and more Large Cover Image Summary Jointly created by the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association and history students at Portland State University, this bilingual (English/Chinese) history fills a long neglected gap in immigrant history on the West Coast. In four sections, each devoted to a geographic area of Oregon, the rich--often tragic--history of the Chinese is detailed through well-researched text and a wonderful collection of photos--many from private collections not previously seen by the public.
