Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a thorough review of the history of Ellis Island, including the diverse groups of people who traversed its shores, and an analysis of the government's restrictive policies of the time. The author surveys the political and social climate of the United States in the early 20th century, setting the stage for an in-depth examination of the motivations behind the laws that led to the restrictive immigration policies. The impact of such policies on various groups of immigrants is examined in detail as is the impact of stringent quotas on the hopes and dreams of those seeking admission to the United States.
