Main Content: The book explores the changes and continuities in social mobility in the United States over three centuries. Pessen investigates social mobility through documented historical evidence rather than relying solely on sociological theories. He combines insights from historical records with rigorous data analysis to portray a nuanced picture of social movement across different eras. His study addresses whether opportunities for upward mobility were genuinely accessible across various social classes and examines factors that may have influenced individuals’ ability to move up or down the social ladder. The book provides critical insights into the structure and functioning of American society, highlighting the gaps between the “American Dream” and the historical realities of class stratification.
