ASIA June 2014: China

A three-week trip to East Asia, to teach a seminar in US immigration history to MA and PhD students in US history at Northeast Normal University in Changchun.  (Came last year as part of OAH exchange, see last year's blog. They invited me back to teach again.)  First, a stop in Beijing to see my cousin there, and also had lunch with graduate students at Peking University.  Also met my editor at Commercial Press, who promises Chinese edition of THE LUCKY ONES out by end of year.


sautéed silk worms.  Closed my eyes and ate one. Yech! must be an acquired taste.

Egg custard tarts 

Mapo tofu!
