We look at how Manchester has been a city of immigrants over the last century. A large number of French, Irish, and other European people moved into the city to work the Amoskeag Mills. We'll find out how those groups shaped the city and the state, and how that immigrant tradition continues today. Laura’s guest is Historian Robert Perreault.
