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 mother, my stepfather, my brother Giuseppe, and my two sisters, Liberta and Helvetia, all of us together, happy that we had come through the storm safely, clustered on the foredeck for fear of separation and looked with wonder on this miraculous land of our dreams.
How does this quotation add credibility to Freedman's statement that the immigrants believed that in America life would be better?

It comes from a mother who clustered with her children on a boat.
It comes from a writer who authored books about the American dream.
It comes from an immigrant who called America the land of his dreams.
It comes from a teacher who studied immigrants in American history
