Fine historical work

Mr. Perea has assembled a fine group of articles from various scholars, showing the different sides of modern nativism. Facts are inserted into the often heated debate about immigrants, and as a result a more logical outlook takes place. Not a must-have work, but interesting for those who desire to study the topic of immigration in any depth as well as for those who care about policy discussions in this country.
