The 4-volume Reference Library of European America is a remarkable resource on the "Ellis Island Experience" of European American immigrants. Ethnic essays include information on the country of origin and circumstances surrounding major immigration waves, while focusing on that group's experiences in America - specifically in the areas of acculturation and assimilation, family and community dynamics, religion, employment and economic traditions, politics and government, and significant contributions.

Also featured are detailed profiles of 45 countries of origin, a general subject index and a bibliography. The text is highlighted by numerous photos, maps, flags and national emblems.
