General Note One of the few free settlers attracted to Australia in 1818 was Mak Sai Ying, who has descendants living in Sydney today. He bought land, married, and took up a pub licence. Since then, Chinese people have had a colourful and conspicuous place in Australia's oldest city. Shirley Fitzgerald's popular and scholarly book traces the feats and fortunes of Australia's largest Chinese community; the highs and lows, the endless comings and goings, commerce, primary production, culture, religion and politics. - From back cover.
