About the book
A middle-grade history of the "other Ellis Island" traces how Angel Island served as an entry point for one million Asian immigrants to the United States in the early 20th century, drawing on memoirs, diaries, letters and "wall poems" discovered at the facility long after it closed to describe the center's screening process, immigration policies and eventual renaissance as a historic site. Drawing from memoirs, diaries, letters, and the "wall poems" discovered at the facility long after it closed, this book describes the people, the screening process, detention and deportation and the eventual renaissance of Angel Island.
