Hest simply and faithfully holds a mirror to the milestone event for millions of turn-of-the-century immigrants. -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)

The sure and inspired narrative by award-winning author Amy Hest is paired with paintings by P.J. Lynch that glow with warmth and carefully observed detail, creating an unforgettable tribute to the immigrant experience.
