Description
The Multicultural America set offers students and general readers a fascinating glimpse into the history of different ethnic groups in this nation. The focus of the set is on the social history, customs, and traditions of immigrants across American history. Each volume covers a different ethnic group-including African Americans, Arab Americans, Asian Americans, European Americans, Hispanic Americans, Jewish Americans, and Native Americans-presenting a remarkable array of valuable information. The books cover everything from the foods people ate, the way they dressed, entertainment, and popular pastimes to work, education, political activity, and their contributions and conflicts in American society. The volumes in this brand-new set are presented in an engaging, informative manner, describing what members of a group found when they first arrived in the United States right up to their current status in American society. Black-and-white photographs and illustrations, a glossary, maps, box features, and further reading round out these invaluable resources.<\p>
