More about the book
Exploring the often-overlooked narrative of American emigration, this book delves into the assertion of emigrant rights by U.S. citizens from the nation's inception. It intertwines the histories of citizenship and the North American borderlands, illuminating how political allegiances influenced the evolution of these rights between 1750 and 1870. By reframing the understanding of the United States as both a nation of immigrants and emigrants, it sheds light on the complexities of national identity and migration.
