American Immigration

American Immigration BY MALDWYN ALLEN JONES (The Chicago History of American Civilization) Paperback – January 1, 1965 by MALDWYN ALLEN JONES (Author) In this book, the author analyses the actual process of immigration, an experience which was essential the same for Jamestown settlers and for Hungarian refugees. He points to the various national crises which tested the immigrant’s adjustment to life in America and shows us how the immigrant has played a particularly vital role in sectional conflicts, the westward movement, labor organization, foreign policy, and the theory and practice of democracy.
