The Uprooted: The Epic Story of the Great Migrations that Made the American People (Used Paperback) - Oscar Handlin

Condition: This book is in Acceptable Condition. There is some wear to the edges of the paperback cover. There is ink underlining throughout. A previous owner's name is written inside the front cover.

The Uprooted is a rare book, combining powerful feeling and long-time study to give us the shape and the feel of the immigrant experience rather than just the facts. It elucidates the hopes and the yearnings of the immigrants that propelled them out of their native environments to chance the hazards of the New World. It traces the profound imprint they made upon this world and how they, in turn, were changed by it.

When first published, The Uprooted won the Pulitzer Prize for history.
