Gateway to America: Liberty Island and Ellis Island (American Traveler)
By Nancy M. Davies.
Description
In the latter years of the 19th century and well into the 20th century, the United States experienced a wave of immigration the likes of which had never been seen. Between 1890 and 1954, it is estimated that 16 million immigrants entered the port of New York alone, among Italians, Poles, Greeks, Russians, and others in search of religious and economic freedom--and the American dream. This book is about a historical monument: Ellis Island. - from Amzon
