A New Book on Filipino America

There is a new book by Benito M. Vergara, Jr. entitled Pinoy Capital: The Filipino Nation in Daly City. It is often joked that the fog in Daly City is actually the steam from all the rice cookers. Less known is that 35% of the population of Daly City is of Philippine descent. The book analyzes the development of Daly City, placing it within the context of Filipino American history. It looks like it will be a good read.
