The Last Ships from Hamburg
by Steven Ujifusa
Leading up to World War I, the United States has become the choice for those seeking religious, political, and economic freedom in the face of persecution. But soon resentment brings conflict. Voices to limit immigration grow louder. This maritime history of the great transatlantic steamship era is a lesson about the voices we hear today, and a masterful history to read in our own perilous time.
