Join us for our October Talk Story event with Scott D. Seligman. Through his new book, “Tong Wars: The Untold Story of Vice, Money and Murder in New York’s Chinatown,” he tells the true story of the Chinese gang wars that engulfed New York Chinatown from the 1890’s to the 1930’s.

As always, this event is FREE, and we hope you can join us to be a part of the conversation.

“New York’s early Chinatown history has been portrayed unfairly as an exaggerated Yellow Peril den of mysterious Orientals. By diligently and expertly trawling the evidence, however, Scott Seligman has unshrouded the mystery and offered up the gripping story of the men of Chinatown’s underworld and their intramural battles over gambling, opium and other vices.” – Paul French, author of the New York Times bestselling “Midnight in Peking”.
