This is an article about a book that does not fulfil the criteria of WP:BK. --Caorongjin (talk) 23:48, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. The reference section includes five reviews of this book. Personally, I would prefer content on this type to be given more context by being included in a larger historical article on Chinese in Mexico, a larger historiographical article on the study of the Chinese in Mexico, or in a biography of the author, Robert Chao Romero, who has no article but who may well have published other things on the same subject or related subjects. Possibly all three. But, failing either of those things, this fulfills criterion #1 of WP:BK. --Hegvald (talk) 17:32, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - as per Hegvald. They are not casual reviews either, WP:BK definitely covered Nosebagbear (talk) 10:10, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep: The article clearly satisfies criteria 1. of WP:NB Harsh Rathod  Poke me!  11:15, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep, meets WP:NBOOK and WP:GNG, in addition to the book reviews cited, here are a coupe more: in China Review International - The Chinese in Mexico 1882–1940 by Robert Chao Romero, and: Making the Chinese Mexican: Global Migration, Localism, and Exclusions in the U.S.-Mexico Borderlands by Grace Peña Delgado, and: Chinese Mexicans: Transpacific Migration and the Search for a Homeland 1910–1960 by Julia María Schiavone Camacho (review), and in Bulletin of Latin American Research - Book Review: The Chinese in Mexico, 1882–1940 ‐ by Chao Romero, Robert, and its pretty well known being held by around 520 libraries around the world.
