Read edward corsi’s quotation from the book immigrant kids by russell freedman. edward corsi, who later became united states commissioner of immigration, was a ten-year-old italian immigrant when he sailed into new york harbor in 1907: my first impressions of the new world will always remain etched in my memory, particularly that hazy october morning when i first saw ellis island. the steamer florida, fourteen days out of naples, filled to capacity with 1600 natives of italy, had weathered one of the worst storms in our captain’s memory; and glad we were, both children and grown-ups, to leave the open sea and come at last through the narrows into the bay. how does this quotation add credibility to freedman’s line that the voyage was an ordeal, but it was worth it?
