About the Folio
For centuries, people from many nations have arrived in America, carrying in their hearts excitement and trepidation — and memories of the cultures they have left behind. America has transformed them, and they in turn have transformed America. This folio invites you to experience six tales of arrival, struggle and triumph: from China and Afghanistan, Cuba and Ireland, Mexico and Nigeria. Powerful, heartrending and magical, these books will remind you that immigration is etched deep into the American story.
