The British Isles provided more overseas settlers than any country in continental Europe during the nineteenth century, but English emigrants to North America have remained largely invisible, partly for lack of records about their departure or their experiences. Here Charlotte Erickson uses new sources to understand this long-neglected group and the nature of their lives in a new land. 
"These seven essays . . . represent the considered reflections on the nature, motives and myths surrounding 19th-century transatlantic migration from one of the pioneers of this field of inquiry. . . . Thoughtful, scholarly, and stimulating."--Virginia Quarterly Review

Invisible Immigrants is a remarkable collection of letters from the past, now made available for the first time in paperback. A classic, first published in 1972, the book includes the letters of people who emmigrated to America in the nineteenth century and who kept in touch with friends and relatives in scattered parts of England and Scotland. Their voices speak to us here - sometimes bitterly, often with humor - telling us exactly what happened to them. Many of their letters are engrossing, some are amusing, others are poignant. They are ordinary people, these "invisible immigrants," and they capture their experience by relating the facts and details of everyday living.
