Each of the four books in this box set offers a different perspective of immigrating to the United States -- that of an Irish girl sent to work in the Lowell, Massachusetts mills; a Polish girl who comes to live in a western Pennsylvania mining town; a Jewish girl who moves to New York City with her family; and a Finnish boy who settles in Minnesota.
