More than 17 million immigrants came here-to the front door of America-from 1890 to 1915 in what has been called the largest mass migration in human history. In the shadow of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island is one of the nation's most important historical sites and is one of our most heavily visited national monuments.

Author Bio
Author John T. Cunningham has been a freelance writer and historian since 1963. Mr. Cunningham's contributions to the preservation of New Jersey's history have been great: he is the author of 35 books, at least 2,000 magazine articles on state and local history, his fourth-grade curriculum is used extensively throughout the state, and he is the author of the only one-volume history of New Jersey ever written. Arcadia has been proud to work with Mr. Cunningham on the publication of Chatham and Madison, books that will certainly make the work of this outstanding author available for many generations to come.
