Produktbeschreibung

Turn back the clock with History Comics! In this volume, take a visit to Ellis Island and learn America's immigration story. Many Americans know someone who can trace their ancestry through Ellis Island. In addition to being part of the world-famous Statue of Liberty National Monument, this modest-sized piece of land once housed the main immigration processing center for the U.S., documenting upwards of 12 million people between 1892 and 1954! Over the generations, Ellis Island has taken on an almost mythic status as a beacon of hope to those seeking freedom and refuge from persecution. But how did it all get started? Our past is only the beginning with History Comics, a riveting nonfiction graphic novel series from First Second!
