520 A dramatic new retelling of our nation's past. Beginning
with the colonization of the New World, it recounts the
history of America in the voice of the non-Anglo peoples
of the United States--Native Americans, African Americans,
Jews, Irish Americans, Asian Americans, Latinos, and
others--groups who helped create this country's rich
mosaic culture. Now, Ronald Takaki has revised his
landmark work and made it even more relevant and
important. Among the new additions to the book are: the
role of black soldiers in preserving the Union; the
history of Chinese Americans from 1900-1941; an
investigation into the hot-button issue of "illegal"
immigrants from Mexico; and a look at the sudden
visibility of Muslim refugees from Afghanistan. This new
edition grapples with the raw truth of American history
and examines the ultimate question of what it means to be
an American.--From publisher description.
