Angel Island


Book Description
During the late 1800s and early 1900s, nearly 1 million immigrants were processed at the Angel Island immigration station. Although Angel Island was also called The Gateway to the West, for some it became the place that kept them out of the United States. Find out what immigrants had to go through at Angel Island and discover why today Angel Island stands as a symbol of hope and struggle.
