With the steady increase in the number of Asian immigrants, our interest in AsianAmerican communities has intensified in recent years. While much has been written on the experiences of established immigrant communities such as the Chinese and the Japanese, little is yet known about the Korean Americans, one of today's fastest growing AsianAmerican minorities. This volume provides an overview of the history of Korean immigration to this countryfrom the first immigrants who arrived in Hawaii at the beginning of the century to the most recent waves of the 1980s and 1990sand a detailed analysis of the main problems Korean Americans face in adjusting to life in their adopted country. The author collected most of his data through a questionnaire survey and casestudy interviews, which provide lively, firstperson accounts of the immigrant experience, focusing in particular on problems such as the language barrier, social isolation, family tension, and the challenge of earning a livelihood.
