"Historical Aspects of the Immigration Problem, Select Documents" is an extensive and authoritative collection of primary source materials that trace the history of migration to the United States during the period of the "old immigration." Compiled by the renowned scholar and social work pioneer Edith Abbott, this work offers a deep dive into the legislative, economic, and social factors that shaped the American immigrant experience prior to the late 19th century.
The volume is organized to provide a comprehensive view of the journey from Europe to the New World, featuring a wide array of documents including personal letters, official reports, court records, and contemporary news accounts. These documents illuminate the physical hardships of the Atlantic crossing, the activities of emigration agents, and the complex process of assimilation in a rapidly developing nation. By focusing on the era before the federalization of immigration control, the collection highlights the role of state and local governments in managing the influx of new populations.
This work remains a vital resource for historians and sociologists, providing essential context for the development of American social policy and the historical roots of the nation's demographic landscape. It serves as a monumental record of the human and institutional aspects of one of the most significant mass movements in modern history.
