Title: Coming to America
Review: This is an extremely useful book for anyone who has an interest in the impact on immigrants upon U.S. history. This book gives capsule histories of most groups of immigrants to the United States. It also provides a very useful theoretical understanding of the reasons for immigration. Though it is particularly useful in its examination of the pre-colonial and colonial periods, it also (unlike many texts) includes a significant history of the pan-Caribbean slave trade, and the impact on the country as a whole of twenty percent of the population (at one time) being Africans or the children of Africans. I wish I had read it years ago, as I found my own family, immigrants from Krefeld, Germany, discussed here!Coming to America (Second Edition): A History of Immigration and Ethnicity in American Life
