From Every End of This Earth: 13 Families and the New Lives They Made in America by by Steven V. Roberts

At a time when immigration is a hot topic, Roberts celebrates the strength, character, and contributions of newcomers. He shares the stories of 13 families consisting of professionals, international entrepreneurs, survivors of war and genocide, and business owners. As he relates their painful experiences before and after coming to America, he convincingly argues that “these immigrants are like the sun and the rain to America; they replenish our soil and our spirit.” (HarperCollins)
