My aunt recently gave me some Life magazines from the late 30s, just paging through the ads was fascinating.  The Wages of Whiteness by David Roedigger: Looks at how diverse European ethnic groups became white in the late 19th century by creating and excluding an "other" group (blacks). Includes a lot of labor history.  A Different Mirror by Ronald Takaki: Brief histories of many different ethnic groups in the U.S. and their interactions with each other from the colonial era to today.
