This book examines the phenomenon of European migration during the three centuries following Colombus's first voyage to America. It focuses on a range of countries, though the authors agree in concluding that migration more often led to an early death than a quick fortune. The contributors are distinguished historians, whose essays combine to make an important contribution to the history of migration.
