Indentured Immigrants,
By Mike Barnes (Sacramento, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Indentured immigrants: A Jewish family odyssey from Madeira to the Sandwich Islands (Paperback)
While Indentured Immigrants accurately traces the journey of a family from Maderia to the Sandwich Islands, it also spells out the history of that time and people and their struggles with life. Painstakenly researched, Philip Pasquini chronicles not only the life of the Pereira family but life aboard the Sterlingshire,a three-masted ship, sailing around Cape Horn. It includes numerous stories of life as an indentured servants in the cane fields of Hawaii, transition to life on the mainland, and the quest of people seeking a better life. Indentured Immigrants is a book that's meant to be read over and over. Graphics, maps, illustrations, and photographs enhance nearly every page. Full of data and poignant stories, this book is long overdue.
