This book, a compilation of presentations given at the 1913 Pacific Coast Immigration Congress, reflects the growing concerns surrounding immigration at the time. The text focuses specifically on the need for the fair treatment and reception of immigrants on the Pacific Coast as the Panama Canal's impending opening was expected to drastically increase their numbers. The primary question tackled by the speakers and delegates at this gathering was how to best prepare for this influx and ensure that these individuals would have an equal chance to become good citizens. The compilation provides valuable historical insight into the multifaceted immigration challenges faced by America over a century ago, particularly from the perspectives of those deeply involved in addressing them.
