In his novel, Nuggets of Wisdom, author Richard L. Cheng follows the journey of one young man from Canton, China to America, in his quest for a better life. Yong-Gan leaves all that he knows to venture to "Gold Mountain" where he is told fist-sized gold nuggets can be found. He discovers, instead, the hardships of working in goldmines, and railroad camps; and like 600,000 other Chinese laborers who either ventured overseas or were forced into slavery, he leaves his footprint imbedded in America's history. Yong-Gan spends the next 19 years trying to find his way home where a more precious gift might await him. Readers will not only explore an important part of America's history, but will discover healing herbs, remedies, and other hidden nuggets of wisdom in this fascinating story of love, faith, and survival.
