Puerto Rican migration to the US following World War II took place for a range of reasons: globalization of the economy, the colonial relationship between the US and Puerto Rico, state policies, social networks, and, the decisions made by individual immigrants. This book weaves them into a tapestry of Puerto Rican immigration to Philadelphia.
