The author, with his long career observing immigration, presents historical and statistical data to argue for the view that immigrants have significantly contributed to the social, economic, and political development of the new country. He explains how the US became the favorite land of immigrants, and what the benefits and challenges are for hosting so many newcomers. Combining archival research with firsthand accounts, the author explores the experiences of immigrants from different countries, backgrounds, and social classes, and reveals the important role government has played in supporting and managing the flow.
