| Summary, etc. |
Comprised mostly of memoirs with some fiction, this volume gathers selections from the writings of 85 immigrants from 45 countries that illustrate the changing views of immigrants in the United States. In nearly 100 entries, this first-of-its-kind collection presents the full range of the experience of coming to America--from the reasons for emigration, the journey itself, the shock of first arrival, and, above all, the struggle with the complexities of Americanization. www.alibris.com |
