Publisher's Synopsis
Each book in Primary Sources of Immigration and Migration in America paints a vivid picture for students of the varied histories of the people that make up the United States of America. These books take a unique approach on telling the history of the United States from the global perspective of the different immigrant groups that came here. What events were the catalysis for them to come? What impact did they have on the events that were unfolding in America once they got here? All of these questions and more will be answered through primary source imagery, documents, and clear, engaging text. A tragic part of America's history, it is an essential one for students to understand. In this book, students learn how immigration to America impacted America's first immigrants, the Native Americans. Primary source images bring this story to life as students learn what life was like both before and after the Europeans arrived. The book also explains the positive and negative aspects of the relationship between Native American nations and the settlers, as well as the different perspectives each group had about what was happening around them.
