{"product_id":"american-mosaic-joan-morrison-9780822954880","title":"American Mosaic: The Immigrant Experience in the Words of Those Who Lived It","description":"This extraordinary work of oral history captures the immense drama and full dimensions of the American immigrant experience. The men and women who tell their stories include such famous names as Alistair Cooke, W. Michael Blumenthal, Edward Teller, and Lynn Redgrave. But they share these pages with 136 other people whose stories are equally compelling: a Jewish former sweatshop worker and union organizer, a Scandanavian homesteader, a Polish coal miner, an anti-Nazi refugee, a Japanese war bride, a Mexican migrant worker, a Cuban exile, a South African interracial couple, a Soviet dissident, and many more. They reveal the mingled joy and pain, hardship and triumph that were and are part of the glowing dream and fearful gamble of a new life in a new land. They offer unique understanding not only of the makeup but of the meaning of America.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joan Morrison,Charlotte Fox Zabusky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0822954885\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822954880\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Pittsburgh Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/07\/1993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.05h x 6.05w x 1.02d","brand":"Joan Morrison","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48448998637823,"sku":"9780822954880","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_446d454f-c9d5-4a26-af11-83f95731f3e3.jpg?v=1777261500","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/american-mosaic-joan-morrison-9780822954880","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
