From Every End of This Earth - 13 Families and the New Lives They Made in America

New York Times bestselling author Steven V. Roberts follows the stories of thirteen immigrant families in From Every End of This Earth , a poignant and eye-opening look at immigration in America today. He captures the voices of those living the promise of a new land--and the difficulties of starting over among strangers whose suspicions increasingly outweigh their open-armed acceptance. As the political debate rages on, Roberts sheds light on the enormous contributions immigrants continue to make to the fabric and future of America.>
