    • Abstract:
      Of the 550,000 immigrants who tried to enter the country through Angel Island, 300,000 immigrants were detained. Angel Island's greatest claim to fame may be its role as a U.S. immigration station on the West Coast. Whereas the Ellis Island Immigration Station processed most of the immigrants that passed through it, Angel Island became a place to detain immigrants. [Extracted from the article]
