Histories and Memories: Migrants and their History in Britain (International Library of Historical Studies)

Who are the migrants that have flocked to Britain since the nineteenth century? How do they understand their experiences? Histories and Memories examines this question from the perspective of the migrants themselves, and the ways in which historians and popular culture have recognized them. In so doing, it explores a wide range of ethnic groups and experiences from racism to Britishness, self-perception and the role of memory in migrant history.
