A Much Needed Chronicle of Arab American History

This book was much needed because of a general lack of information on the history of Arabs in America. The most interesting part of this book was its description of the first wave of Arab immigration to the U.S., from 1878 to 1924. I found it really fascinating to read about the origins of Arab Americans. There are not many places you can go to find this kind of info. Also helpful were the appendices in the book giving exact numbers of Arab immigration to the United States from 1869 to 2004. Overall I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning more about Arab American history. It is a thorough, complete, and well written piece.

the memories of many Arab American
