When Amos became a professional artist in 1981, his first major project was to document Victoria’s Chinatown, the first one in Canada, dating back to 1858. Amos's research into the subject is available in the award-winning book Inside Chinatown (TouchWood Editions, 2009) which he created with Kileasa Wong. The neighbourhood is also central to a children’s book which Amos illustrated, titled No Such thing as Far Away (written by Laura Langston, published by Orca Books 2004).
