New chapters include a selection of letters from Irish immigrants fleeing the famine of the 1840s, writings from an immigrant who escaped the civil war in Liberia during the 1980s, and letters that crossed the U.S.-Mexico border during the late 1980s and early '90s. With each addition editor Thomas Dublin has kept to his original goals, which was to show the commonalities of the U.S. immigrant experience across lines of gender, nation of origin, race, and even time. </div>ImmigrantsImmigrants' writings, AmericanImmigrantsImmigrants' writings, American325.73Thomas Dublin Dublin1744883BOOK9910153132203321Immigrant Voices: New Lives in America, 1773-20004175218UNINA
