520			_a"When I Was a Boy in China" by Yan Phou Lee is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work chronicles the author's early life and experiences as a boy growing up in China during a period of significant cultural and social change. The narrative provides a personal perspective on the customs, traditions, and beliefs of Chinese society, exploring themes such as family structure, education, and the stark differences between Eastern and Western cultures. At the start of the narrative, Lee recounts his birth in 1861 and the associated celebrations, emphasizing cultural practices such as name-giving and the societal value placed on male heirs. The opening portion vividly describes the author's infancy, the customs surrounding parenting and child-rearing, and his first memories, providing insight into the familial expectations and restrictions he faced. Lee's recollections illustrate a childhood steeped in the rich traditions of Chinese culture, alongside the strict discipline imposed by societal norms, setting the stage for his eventual journey to the United States.
