This paper discusses Cathy Small's "Voyages: From Tongan Villages to American Suburbs". It shows how the author depicts Tongan migration to the United States in a unique way. The author focuses on a "transnational" perspective in that she emphasizes both cultures involved. In so doing, the author reveals how Tongan immigrants are able to integrate their lives in America. The author's approach helps us get away from an Americanized view of immigration and to get a greater understanding of other cultures and values. 5 pgs. Bibliography lists 1 source.
