Summary, etc. James Walvin applies a fresh eye to three key issues. He provides the context by tracing the history of immigration to Britain since the Middle Ages; he discusses recent events - legislation since 1962, political initiatives, organi zations from the Campaign for Racial Equality to the National Front; and he gives us a flavour of the grim and frustrating realities for those living in Britain's 'mosaic of communities'.<br/><br/>Largely because of Britain's loss of Empire and diminish ing world influence, the age-old controversy over immi gration has hardened into a major poliissue. Here the acrimonious debate about race and lour is discussed and illustrated to show how it touches on all the areas of current social concern. Teachers, legislators, politicians, activists and everyone working towards racial equality in Britain will find that Passage to Britain gives construc tive new impetus to the question: what can be done?
