Requirements: .PDF reader, 43 Mb
Overview: This book is the 8th in a series examining the social and economic lives of working Americans. In this volume, the focus is on immigrants-- the men, women and children who abandoned everything they knew for a dream called America. Some were lured to the "Gold Mountain" by economic necessity, others found themselves persecuted and in serious need of a sucure home. Their stories include a French Canadian boxer who tried to fight his way out of the Depression and a Haitian artist who was detained shortly after swimming ashore south of Miami. Some immigrants arrived by boat and landed with great expectations at Ellis Island. Others traveled from Costa Rica to Paterson, New Jersey, in the hidden panel of a cousin's pick-up truck. Some were successful, some were not. All had a part to play in painting the rich mosaic known as the United States of America.
