The 1840s and 1850s marked the beginning of Asian immigration to the United States, starting with the arrival of Chinese in Hawaii and on the mainland West Coast. Initially, laborers found work on the sugar plantations and in the gold mines, and later supplied much of the manual labor for the building of the western leg of the transcontinental railway.
