Let's Send Him to America is the story of a powerful Chinese Chancellor who swore revenge against a nineteen-year-old healer for failing to save his only daughter. He craved revenge-deep, painful, and long-lasting revenge. He did it by sending the young healer to California. In 1908 there were 500,000 people living in California, and 150,000 of them were Chinese. These unskilled laborers couldn't speak the language, didn't know American ways, and had no means to return home-which they desperately wanted to do. The need for Chinese labor was over, and these immigrants were now hated by everyone. This is the America the young Chinese healer was dropped into. What the Chancellor didn't know was just how resourceful a misplaced nineteen-year-old healer could be.
