Sommario/riassunto

For Americans the Civil War was simply an internal conflict, and they have emphasized its military exploits and the romantic myths that have grown up around it. They have given little regard to its international aspects. In truth, however, the American Civil War attracted worldwide attention. Other nations followed the fortunes of the war and sought to understand its goals because they saw that the fate of the American system would likely have a profound effect on their own social and political economies.

Sommario/riassunto

This study of Boston's West Indian immigrants examines the identities,                goals, and aspirations of two generations of black migrants from the British-held                Caribbean who settled in Boston between 1900



and 1950. Describing their experience                among Boston's American-born blacks and in the context of the city's immigrant                history, the book charts new conceptual territory. The Other Black Bostonians                explores the pre-migration background of the immigrants, work and housing, identity,                culture and community, activi
