Reviews/Endorsements

"With nearly 200 entries, from 'African Americans and Immigration' to 'Zoot Suit Riots,' this two-volume set is the perfect overview to several hundred years of anti-immigration sentiment. Not only does this encyclopedia provide historical insight, it pays a great deal of attention to current issues, policies, and events." - Libray Journal Online

"The editor accurately notes that this encyclopedia should be seen as 'not only a history of events--with a clear chronology--but also a history of ideas.' Summing Up: Recommended." - Choice

"This traditionally designed, specialized historical encyclopedia will be useful in undergraduate and larger public libraries." - Booklist
