Issues in U.S. Immigration, Of the many themes that characterize U.S. history, immigration is one of the most constant and most pervasive. Since the first European and African immigrants began arriving in North America during the early seventeenth century, immigrants have steadily poured into what is now the United States. During the early twenty-first century, that flow has continued unabated - the major difference being that most immigrants now come from Latin America - especially Mexico and Central America - and Asia. Issues in U.S. Immigration examines the many issues surrounding immigration - from the earliest settlement of British North America in the seventeenth century through the immediate aftermath of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks of the twenty-first century. It also places special emphasis on the many ethnic communities that have provided American immigrants. Book jacket.
