Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Gardens of Green Down at the Narrows in New York, you can stand on the Staten Island hills and watch the tides race out and in. They are called the Atlantic tides, the flood and the ebb of the ocean. But, if you look at the ships; they are bringing in another, the human tide. That flood of emigrants began to come in shortly after the Pilgrim Fathers landed, and it has never stopped flowing over and across the continent. The United States of America has been the hope of the hopeless, the goal and the refuge of the poor, the industrious and the ambitious. So much of an open door has it been that good people are beginning to pucker their brows and look serious over the "emigrant problem." Any day in the week you can see crowds of men, women and children from Southern Europe with strange clothes, thick-soled boots and weighted down with bundles on their backs. Little frightened children trot alongside of weary mothers who are carrying big babies in their arms. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
