A Nation of Immigrants by John F. Kennedy

7/10. Basically this is something I could’ve written in few hours for a Schuster final but more redundant, including quotes from Oscar Handlin & a slight favoritism for the Irish; nothing groundbreaking, essentially a brain dump of info that wouldn’t sell if it wasn’t written by JFK. Nevertheless it’s a tight & solid read you can start and finish in an afternoon at the coffee shop for those who didn’t get a college history education. It also serves as a great reminder of the fact that all of us are immigrants & should be open to letting in those who want the same opportunities our ancestors did.
