Synopsis
A fascinating, thematic exploration of some of the millions of immigration files in the US National Archive, focusing on twenty nine case studies, this book explores beyond the literal by looking at the "attachments" of immigrants to family and community. Included are many previously unpublished photographs and other documents., * A fascinating, thematic exploration of some of the millions of immigration files in the US National Archive, focusing on 29 case studies* Explores beyond the literal meaning by looking at the 'attachments' of immigrants to family and community* Includes many previously unpublished photographs and other documents from the US National Archives* Accompanies an exhibition at the National Archives, Washington, D.C from June 15th, 2012 Americans proudly proclaim the United States "a nation of immigrants." Millions who came to the US found freedom and opportunity, but America's immigrant story has always been made up of individuals whose histories differed according to who they were, where they came from, and where, when and why they arrived. Attachments: Faces and Stories from America's Gates, based on a National Archives Experience exhibition of the same title, draws from the millions of immigration files in the U.S. National Archives to tell some of these unique tales. The catalogue combines prospective immigrants' photographs that were "attached" to a variety of immigration forms, as well as other fascinating documents, to explore the attachments of immigrants to family and community.

- n***o (51)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseFast shipping! Once we figured communicated with the seller to find out that the listing was correct but the 1st image was wrong, everything went very smooth.
- e***_ (387)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseSeller had great communication. Packed and shipped quickly. Seller did not use the shipper that buyer requested. Seller sent a screenshot of shipping costs and provided a partial refund for difference in cost. Items were listed as ‘New’ and seller confirmed boxes were opened but never used. Unfortunately, a quality check was not done, and some items were used. Seller asked me what I felt was fair to resolve the issue - AMAZING. Seller provided very fair compensation for the discrepancy. *****Kiwi Co Yummy Crate Educational Kit Ages 6+ Lot Of 11 STEM Toy Learn Cooking (#305967809290)
