In this book, Elizabeth Boosahda, a third-generation Arab American, draws on over two hundred personal interviews, as well as photographs and historical documents that are contemporaneous with the first generation of Arab Americans (Syrians, Lebanese, Palestinians), both Christians and Muslims, who immigrated to the Americas between 1880 and 1915, and their descendants. Boosahda focuses on the Arab-American community in Worcester, Massachusetts, a major northeastern center for Arab immigration, and Worcester's links to and similarities with Arab-American communities throughout North and South America. Using the voices of Arab immigrants and their families, she explores their entire experience, from emigration at the turn of the twentieth century to the present-day lives of their descendants. This rich documentation sheds light on many aspects of Arab-American life, including the Arab entrepreneurial motivation and success, family life, education, religious and community organizations, and the role of women in initiating immigration and the economic success they achieved. 606 $aArab Americans$zMassachusetts$zWorcester$xHistory 606 $aArab Americans$zMassachusetts$zWorcester$xHistory$vSources 606 $aArab Americans$zMassachusetts$zWorcester$vInterviews 606 $aImmigrants$zMassachusetts$zWorcester$xHistory 606 $aImmigrants$zMassachusetts$zWorcester$xHistory$vSources 606 $aArabs$xMigrations$xHistory 607 $aWorcester (Mass.)$xEthnic relations 607 $aArab countries$xEmigration and immigration$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$xEmigration and immigration$xHistory 607 $aLatin America$xEmigration and immigration$xHistory 615 0$aArab Americans$xHistory. 615 0$aArab Americans$xHistory 615 0$aArab Americans 615 0$aImmigrants$xHistory. 615 0$aImmigrants$xHistory 615 0$aArabs$xMigrations$xHistory. 676 $a974.4/3 700 $aBoosahda$b Elizabeth$f1926-2017.$01491712 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780325003321 996 $aArab-American faces and voices$93713648 997 $aUNINA 999 $p$48.75$u12/31/2019$5Hist LEADER 01525nam0 22003131i 450 001 UON00044909 005 20231205102201.922 100 $a20020107d1963 |0itac50 ba 101 $aheb 102 $aIL 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aMisnah 'im perush rambam Moshe Ben Mimun$f[a cura di] Joseph Q'apham 210 $aYairusalem$cMasad Harav Qoa$d1963 215 $a3 v.$d24 cm 316 $aaltri inv. 44430-31$5IT-UONSI SEBVIBA/004 (1-3) 606 $aLetteratura ebraica$xMishna$3UONC011818$2FI 620 $aIL$dY?r?sh?layim$3UONL004472 686 $aSEB VI BA$cSTUDI EBRAICI - LETTERATURA - TALMUD E LETTERATURA RABBINICA - TESTI$2A 702 1$aBEN MIMUN$bMoshe$3UONV028562 702 1$aQ'APHAM$bYoseph$3UONV028563 712 $aMasad Harav Qoq$3UONV253043$4650 790 1$aKAPAH, Yoseph$zQ'APHAM, Yoseph$3UONV028564 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20251031$gRICA 912 $aUON00044909 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI SEB VI BA 004 (1-3) $eSI SA 44429 5 004 (1-3) altri inv. 44430-31 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI SEB VI BA 004 (2) $eSI SA 44430 5 004 (2) 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI SEB VI BA 004 (3) $eSI SA 44431 5 004 (3) 996 $aMisnah 'im perush rambam Moshe Ben Mimun$91158781 997 $aUNIOR
