American Mosaic: The Immigrant Experience in the Words of Those Who Lived It
By Joan Morrison and Charlotte Fox Zabusky. A powerful collection of oral history, including the recollections of 140 immigrants from six continents and 50 countries, from the 1900s to recent years. Wrote one critic, "You have the feeling as you read across the extraordinary breadth of time, nationality and experience represented here that you are getting a grip on the real America...as diverse as the millions who have experienced and enriched it." In paperback, 455 pages.
