See's narrative brims with historical detail, including the particulars of Chinese festivals and holidays; ingredients and methods used in traditional Chinese medicine; and the complicated racial dynamics present in a city that was home to Mexicans and Indigenous people as well as Chinese immigrants and white settlers. See writes unflinchingly of the racism faced by people of color and the harsh immigration policies that made life more difficult for Chinese people ... Poignant and fascinating, Daughters of the Sun and Moon is a heart-pounding frontier narrative and a tender tribute to female friendship.
