En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on the German immigrant experience in 19th century America, this book reveals the complexities of the largest foreign-language group during that era. It utilizes recent research and personal letters to highlight the robust German-American institutional network, including schools that offered instruction in German. The narrative explores the gradual shift towards English in churches post-1900 and examines how World War I's anti-German sentiment accelerated the decline of German cultural visibility, while remnants of this culture persisted in rural areas into the late 20th century.
