by Thomas Sowell (Author)
Format: Kindle Edition
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ANRU64A/
The classic work on how different ethnic groups have economically, socially, and educationally adapted to American society
"At once useful as a concise history of major ethnic groups and significant as a quiet but powerful attack on liberal beliefs about minorities, racism, segregation, and affirmative action." —New York Times
A distinguished economist traces the history of nine American ethnic groups—the Irish, Germans, Jews, Italians, Chinese, Japanese, Blacks, Puerto Ricans, and Mexicans—in order to explain their varied experiences in adapting to American society.
