"One of the most important phenomena of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centureis was the great migration of peoples within Europe, across the Atlantic and within the Americas as well. While this migration involved tens of millions and affected still more, this great migration remains an area of comparatively little study. The State of Michigan was very much affected by the immigration of hundreds ofthousands of Europeans from nearly all countries. From an interest in the impact of immigration on the state of Michigan, we became increasingly aware of the larger questions involved. We designed the Immigration Sources Project as a means to better understand the variety and extent of available documentation relating to the great migration and the phenomenon of ethnicity in America." from the Foreword.
