In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. Very Good dj. First Edition. [minor shelfwear, some age-toning to edges of text block; the jacket is lightly edgeworn, very slight paper loss at upper corners, slightly browned along spine]. INSCRIBED (to a former student) and SIGNED by the editor on the front endpaper. "This volume contains the e…ssence of the Americanism found in the most important writings of the immigrants during the past hundred years [including] the opinions of the foreign-born on such topics as segregation and distribution, learning the English language, the Declaration of Independence, industrialism and the immigrant, training for citizenship, naturalization, the work of the public schools, etc. [The book] represents the first attempt to assemble cumulative evidence of the love of the foreign-born for America and their devotion to American institutions and ideals [and] should inspire with a deeper and truer patriotism every reader whether native or foreign-born American." Among the two dozen or so writers represented in this collection are Mary Antin, Edward Bok, Jacob Riis, Otto Kahn, Edward A. Steiner, Angelo Patria, and Anzia Yezierska. ***This book is among the nearly 150 items offered in ReadInk's new Catalog Number 4, "Booking Passage: Books on the Immigrant Experience."
