The Dominican Americans (The New Americans)
.,."presents a comprehensive introduction to one of the largest Latino groups in the United States, filling a glaring vacuum in the burgeoning discipline of Latino Studies....The authors must be commended for striking an effective balance between breadth and depth, for while the book is an ambitious introduction, it offers keen insights about the effect of immigration on notions of Dominican cultural identity....a valuable resource, for it provides a history of Dominican business, civic, social service, and cultural organizations, and lists important political and cultural leaders....the book's clear prose and solid research will appeal to both general readers interested in a new American subgroup and seasoned scholars interested in issues of transnationalism and globalization."-New West Indian Guide
