    Synopsis

    "This classic work by the distinguished economist traces the history of nine American ethnic groups—the Irish, Germans, Jews, Italians, Chinese, African-Americans, Puerto Ricans, and Mexicans."

    New Republic - Diane Ravitch

    …Should be required reading for anyone interested in policy questions involving race and ethnicity….The book's extraordinary merit is its application of demographic and economic analysis to historical and social materials.
