The sine qua non for understanding immigration to America, 2004-01-04
Roger Daniels second edition of "Coming to America" is masterful. There is no other book, I believe, that is more authoritative by way of explaining immigration to the United States during the final third of the twentieth century. And for those interested in exploring the story extending back to the European settlement of North America since the seventeenth century, "Coming to America" is also the place to begin. Daniels narrates this history, in all of its pain, complexity, and brilliance, with a thorough-going understanding of its twists and turns. This book merits its place on the shelf of often-consulted staples in every American's home library.

Must have if you do a lot of genealogy!, 2000-04-09
This is an outstanding book that every genealogical society should own, as well as serious genealogist. The book provides information in both an overview format as well as ethnic group specific information. The price is right - add it to your collection of materials - you will not be sorry.

A Great Reference Piece., 1998-04-28
Encyclopedic in scope, this work is a great primer for anyone interested in developing a clearer sense of what America's "immigrant beginnings" truly means. Although the book sometimes fluctuates awkwardly between tedious number crunching and smooth novelistic writing, they ultimately balance out to give the reader intriguing stories supported by pertinent statistics. This work is highly readable and quite enlightening.
