In our reviews section, we feature appraisals of a recently produced documentary series on the history of Asians in the United States, and four thought-provoking books that cover the following: the prospects of conducting a relational analysis of settler colonialism across Asian and Indigenous literary representations;a rethinking of the history of the construction of the transcontinental railroad from the perspectives of Indigenous communities, Chinese migrant laborers, and the U S colonizing state;the educational experiences of selected high-achieving Asian American youth;and the multilayered forms of Anglophone literature emanating from transpacific locations Running the journal has been an immensely exhilarating and profound endeavor for me, and it would not have been so without Lan\'s amazingly organized and astute work, Michelle\'s insightful contributions and skillful coordination of our intricate editorial process, our editorial board\'s incisive guidance and sustenance, Mary Muhler and the rest of our production team\'s acuity and rigor, and Bill Breichner\'s forward-looking leadership, trust, and overall support of all facets of our work in his capacity as our publisher at JHUP [ ]working with our associate editors Diane Fujino and Lisa Sun-Hee Park for the past two years has been very productive and filled with energy;they are embarking on their next step as editors-in-chief beginning next year, and I have no doubt that their editorial leadership of JAAS, along with the work of our next reviews editor, Christopher Patterson of the University of British Columbia, and new assistant editor, Donna Anderson of UC Santa Barbara, will take us to even more exciting ventures
