Böcker av Nancy L. Green

Presents the story of urban growth, the politics of labour, and the relationships among the many immigrant groups who came to work on the sewing machines of the women's garment industry in the US. This book also provides an examination of gender and ethnicity, historical conflict and consensus, and notions of class and cultural difference.

Recounts the experiences of a long-forgotten part of the American expatriate population. In this book, the author details the politics of citizenship, work, and business, and the wealth (and poverty) among the Americans who staked their claim to the City of Light.
