Robert Forrant and Christoph Strobel under contract to Lowell National Historical Park, defined, researched and created an ethnographic overview of immigrant communities, past and present, in Lowell, Massachusetts. The Big Move features a selection of the thirty-five oral histories they compiled for the larger story. Emblematic of Lowell's diverse population, the oral histories in The Big Move provide an intensely personal perspective that brings to life the individual achievements and challenges that are representative of issues faced by their larger communities in the 21st century.
