Little America: Incredible True Stories of Immigrants in America

The true stories that inspired the Apple original series.

Nearly everyone in America came from somewhere else. This is a fundamental part of the American idea - it's an identity and a place open to everyone. People arrive from all points distant, speaking hundreds of languages, carrying every culture, each having their own reason for uprooting themselves to try something new. Everyone has a unique story. This book is a collection of those stories, told by the people who lived them. Together, they form a wholly original, at times unexpected portrait of America's immigrants, and thereby a portrait of America itself.
