Facts In A Nutshell About Immigration, Yellow And White is a book written by Aretas W. Thomas in 1912. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the immigration policies and practices of the United States during the early 20th century, with a particular focus on the influx of immigrants from China and Japan.The author discusses the historical context of immigration to the United States, including the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 and the Gentlemen's Agreement of 1907, which restricted the immigration of Chinese and Japanese people respectively. Thomas also explores the economic, social, and political implications of these policies, arguing that they were driven by xenophobic attitudes and fears of competition from immigrant labor.The book includes detailed statistics and data on immigration patterns, demographics, and labor trends, as well as analysis of the cultural and linguistic challenges faced by immigrants in adapting to American society. Thomas also provides a critical examination of the role of immigration in American history, arguing that it has been a driving force for innovation and progress, but also a source of conflict and tension.Overall, Facts In A Nutshell About Immigration, Yellow And White is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of immigration and its impact on American society. It provides a nuanced and insightful perspective on a complex and controversial topic, and remains relevant to contemporary debates about immigration policy and reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
