Almost All Aliens - Hardback

The most thorough reinterpretation of the shape and meaning of immigration in United States history--gives students the story from all the borders, reorienting them from their elementary/high school learning.An excellent resource for scholars of U.S. History as well as college students in courses on American immigration and race relations, since the notes and references are so complete, and the conclusions so transformative. Spickard's writing style is a favorite of students. He doesn't talk down to them, and uses little jargon in conveying the argument, which is unconventional enough to energize students and get them talking about the issues.By cutting the notes from the written text and loading them onto the companion website, we've cut the length of the text by a third without sacrificing any of the text iteself. Students who want the extensive notes can download the PDF from the website. Newly updated and completely interactive, the companion website now includes primary sources, extra images, links to archives and other web resources, and discussion questions.
