“The discussion of immigration in the United States today often assumes that earlier European immigrants were lawfully admitted, presenting unauthorized entry as a new problem committed by recent immigrants from Latin America and Asia. By revealing that numerous Europeans entered the country through unauthorized channels, this volume challenges the myth of European legality in U.S. immigration history.”--Hidetaka Hirota, author of Expelling the Poor: Atlantic Seaboard States and the Nineteenth-Century Origins of American Immigration Policy
