“The story of America is one of immigration. By bringing us the inspiring and sometimes unsettling tales of Ellis Island, Vincent Cannato’s American Passage helps us understand who we are as a nation.”

Walter Isaacson, New York Times bestselling author

Professor Vincent J. Cannato delivers a definitive history of America's landmark port of entry. From eyewitness accounts, Cannato weaves together a poignant testament to the hopes and fears of "huddled masses yearning to breathe free." "Never before has Ellis Island been written about with such scholarly care and historical wisdom. Highly recommended!"-Douglas Brinkley, historian
