This title was published at a time when the United States was absorbing, ambivalently, a massive influx of Catholic and Jewish immigrants from southern and eastern Europe. Webster notes nativist resistance to this wave of immigration and expresses the hope that his book will inform debate by providing it with a factual legal background. Both issues of this title are scarce. OCLC locates 3 copies of the 1895 issue, none in North America, and one copy of the reissue (New York Public Library).
