Indian Americans (New Immigrants (Chelsea House))

Barely 40 years after beginning a major immigration movement to the United States, Indian Americans have established vigorous, thriving communities in major metropolitan areas across the country. Author Padma Rangaswamy traces their history, from the early days of the Punjabi pioneers in California to the triumphs of the "dot-com generation." Combining human interest with critical analysis, historical data, and current information, "Indian Americans" relates this group's remarkable story in a clearly written style that will speak to a young generation of readers.
