"Altman's book will become the definitive work on the subject of Spanish migration to the New World."--Helen Nader, Indiana University "Its emphasis on close trans-Atlantic ties between Spaniards in Europe and America gives us a fresh way of looking at the whole settlement process. . . . There is nothing else in English or Spanish that deals with this topic in a similar way."--Stuart B. Schwartz, University of Minnesota

Immigration and Society: A Historical and Sociological Approach is a succinct and handy textbook that covers the critical information a student needs to understand the laws themselves from the Treaty of Paris in 1793 to the present laws. The book explores immigration as a process that began at the start of the Republic. It also examines the policies that changed depending on immigrants of the day, including where they came from, the culture they brought, their skin color, and in some cases, their religion as well as the perceived threats they were alleged to be bringing. This text also provides, in some cases, the full legislation to examine as needed. Immigration and Society provides students with a brief yet detailed exploration of the history of immigration in the United States. The book is an excellent resource for sociology courses, particularly those at the undergraduate level, and can also be used by students in the studies of the history of immigration, law and society, and ethnic studies. It is also suitable for a course on how wars impact immigration. Augustine Kposowa earned his B.A. in philosophy from Saint Paul's College in Liberia, his M.A. in sociology from the University of Cincinnati, and his Ph.D. in sociology from The Ohio State University. He is a professor of sociology and co-chair of the sociology department at the University of California, Riverside, where he currently teaches sociology courses. Dr. Kposowa has authored numerous articles, book chapters, and textbooks addressing various topics in the world of sociology. He is currently involved in research that investigates long-term consequences of the Sierra Leone Civil War on population health.

"Peter Schrag is the model for all political writers. He is committed, passionate, and eloquent, but always stays harnessed to the facts and rooted in the realities of politics and human nature. He reports out everything, and he writes like a dream. We can be grateful that in Not Fit for Our Society he has turned his gifts to the seemingly intractable problem of immigration. We will have to settle this issue again, as we always manage to do despite enormous commotion and anxiety. Schrag will force everyone to think more clearly and to approach immigration with both compassion and good sense."—EJ Dionne, Jr., author of Souled Out "Just who is fit to be part of the society that became a nation in 1776 and who decides, and on what basis? In Not Fit for Our Society, Peter Schrag offers an invigorating, well-informed, carefully reasoned investigation into today's immigration debates."—David Hollinger, President of the Organization of American Historians, 2010-2011 "Peter Schrag has a unique view of the immigration debate and policies that have shaped our country since it's founding. His very timely writing of Not Fit for our Society helps us to better understand how the immigration debate and politics have gotten us to where we are today. His insights and intellect on the subject give all of us much to think about as we move forward on this very important issue."—Doris O. Matsui, Member of Congress "Peter Schrag has done it again. A sweeping review that puts the ferocity of our current immigration debate in historical context, Not Fit for Our Society is a must-read for those hoping to get past talk-show rhetoric and cherry-picked facts. Uncovering the dark impulses that have long undergirded nativist thought, he argues that we have seen this before—and that America will be better if we see through it again."—Manuel Pastor, University of Southern California "Peter Schrag offers a lively and thoughtful reinterpretation of America's ambivalence about immigration and immigrants' place in the nation's life. Drawing on his reading of primary sources and the latest scholarship, he tells a story rich in irony, detail, and nuance, tracing the history of nativism from the earliest days of the Republic to the current debates over immigration reform. The book is particularly striking for the way that it connects the arguments and organizations of the current anti-immigration movement to their roots in the eugenics movement and pseudo-scientific racism of the early 20th century."—Mark Paul, New America Foundation "[Schrag] delivers a story rich in irony, detail, and nuance, often told with passion and frequently challenging orthodoxies of both the political right and left. It is the right book at the right time."-Mark Paul, New America Foundation "History's lessons come through loud and clear as Peter Schrag vividly recounts the characters and the ideas behind that side of America that rejects immigration. Illuminating both in its sweep and its detail this 300-year narrative makes an important contribution to our understanding of today's policy debates."—Roberto Suro, author of Strangers Among US: Latino Lives in a Changing America "In an intemperate time, Peter Schrag's voice is lucid and truly American."—Richard Rodriguez

This book focuses on the departure of Britain’s 'surplus' women to Australia and New Zealand organised by Victorian British female emigration societies. Starting with an analysis of the surplus of women question, it then explores the philanthropic nature of the organisations (the Female Middle Class Emigration Society, the Women’s Emigration Society, the British Women’s Emigration Association, and the Church Emigration Society). The study of the strict selection of distressed gentlewomen emigrants is followed by an analysis of their marketing value, and an appraisal of women’s imperialism. Finally, this work shows that the female emigrants under study partook in the consolidation of the colonial middle-class.
