Second Generation Vietnamese Americans: A Comparative Perspective (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781499374445)

This book is the third in the series on the Fairfax County Asian American History Project (FCAAHP). It is a collection of stories in print and in pictures of those who were born as American citizens, who share a common Vietnamese ethnic origin, and who primarily grew up or chose to come and live in the Northern Virginia, D.C., and Maryland area. It provides a comparative perspective across generations, across state and country borders, and across various experiences at different stages of their authors' lives. It seeks to capture the impressions of those who live within and those who seek to construct and expand the contours of what it means to be a community. These stories reflect the important role of youth in our County and the future direction of a multicultural megalopolis like Fairfax County.
