Immigration to the United States, 1789–1930, offers access to 1,800 books and pamphlets and 13,000 pages from manuscript and archival collections, ranging from novels and diaries to legislative acts and union records. Add in the 9,000 photographs and 200 maps also digitized on the Web site and you have an archive of immense and lasting value to scholars, complemented by an easy-to-use organizational design. |
