註釋

Migration issues make headlines and demand global attention, as millions of Ukrainians, Syrians, Venezuelans and others, pour out of their countries fleeing the scourge of war and persecution and tens of thousands are waiting at the Mexican border to cross over to the US,. This book chronicles the lives of a dozen migrant and refugee families, over a period stretching back to the beginning of the 2Oth century. It starts with the story of the author's grandfather who migrated to the US and died there in the early 1900's. It details the lives of people coping with events that shook the world, like the Armenian genocide, the Jewish holocaust, and the demise of the Soviet Union; or simply because they wanted a better life elsewhere. The volume concludes with recommendations on what the global community must do to address today's migration challenges.
