Immigration has always been a source of debate for the American
public. During the early part of the 20th century Americans had
concerns about the effects of European immigrants. Today similar
concerns are being raised about Latin American immigrants. This
book presents selected decennial census data on the foreign-born
population of the United States from 1850 to 2000. This book
provides the background knowledge necessary to examine the tables
in a detailed and informed manner. The tables provide statistics
that reveal all the trends in immigration during the last century
of America's history. It is fully indexed.
