Chapter XVII
gives a concise summary of immigration for the years 1880-1907.
WORKS ON IMMIGRATION
_Reports of the Immigration Commission, appointed under the Congressional Act of Feb. 20, 1907_. 42 vols. (1911). This is by far the most exhaustive study that has been made of the immigration question. It embraces a wide range of details, especially upon the economic and sociological aspects of the problem.
Census Bureau, _A Century of Population Growth from the First Census of the United States to the Twelfth, 1790-1900_ (1909). The best analysis of the population of the United States. It contains a number of chapters on the population at the time of the First Census in 1790.
John R. Commons, _Races and Immigrants in America_ (1907).
Prescott F. Hall, _Immigration and its Effects upon the United States_ (1906).
Henry P. Fairchild, _Immigration, a World Movement and its American Significance_ (1913). A good historical survey of immigration as well as a suggestive discussion of its sociological and economic bearings.
Jeremiah W. Jenks and W. Jett Lauck, _The Immigration Problem_ (1913). A summary of the Report of the Immigration Commission.
Peter Roberts, _The New Immigration_ (1912). A discussion of the recent influx from Southeastern Europe.
E.A. Ross, _The Old World in the New_ (1914) contains some refreshing racial characteristics.
Richmond Mayo-Smith, _Emigration and Immigration_ (1890). This is one of the oldest American works on the subject and remains the best scientific discussion of the sociological and economic aspects of immigration.

THE NEGRO
B.G. Brawley, _A Short History of the American Negro_ (1913).
W.E.B. Du Bois, _The Negro_ (1915). A small well-written volume, with a useful bibliography and an illuminating chapter on the negro in the United States; also, by the same author, _Suppression of the African Slave Trade_ (1896).

A.B. Faust, _The German Element in the United States_ 2 vols. (1909). Like some other books written to prove the vast influence of certain elements of the population, this work is not modest in its claims.

Lucian J. Fosdick, _The French Blood in America_ (1906). Devoted principally to the Huguenot exiles and their descendants.
Charles A. Hanna, _The Scotch-Irish, or the Scot in North Britain, North Ireland, and North America_. 2 vols. (1902).
