Boston is a city rich in the history of residents from all walks of
life, every country and every ethnicity imaginable. From 1840 to
1925, Boston's diversity created a city with a thriving nexus of
people who wove together a community that reflected their own
unique heritage. In this lavishly illustrated book with over 200
thought-provoking and evocative photographs, Anthony Mitchell
Sammarco and Michael Price have created an important book
chronicling the determination, strength, and often manifold
successes of immigrants who arrived in Boston. From the
mid-nineteenth century when Boston's burgeoning population included
one out of every three as being foreign born, the immigrants'
arrival at the East Boston docks increased greatly between 1840 and
1925, where they were to pass into the New World, and a new life.
In chapters that deal with the immigrants before their arrival,
their first perceptions, to where they went, worked, and played,
this book outlines the ancestors of many present-day Bostonians in
the evolving process of Americanization.
