Italian Immigration in the American West

1870-1940

Beschreibung

Italian Immigration in the American West: 1870-1940 is a comprehensive study of Italian immigration in thirteen western states. While documenting the contribution of Italian men and women to the development of the American West, as well as identifying the cooperative relationship between all immigrants in western enclaves before 1940, Scambray's study challenges many of today's assumptions surrounding immigration, race, and gender.
