One Mighty and Irresistible Tide: The Epic Struggle Over American Immigration, 1924 – 1965

byJia Lynn Yang

In One Mighty and Irresistible Tide, Jia Lynn Yang presents a historical account centered on the Epic Struggle Over American Immigration, 1924: 1965. The narrative identifies the people, decisions, and pressures that shaped the subject, then places those developments within the connected fields of history and political science. The result avoids a single easy lesson, emphasizing instead how circumstances, institutions, and individual choices interacted over time. Readers finish with a sharper understanding of the subject and why its consequences still deserve attention.
