Our Foreigners

"Our Foreigners" by Samuel P. Orth, published in 1919, offers a timely exploration of immigration and Americanization in the early 20th century United States. As America grappled with unprecedented levels of immigration, this book delves into the challenges and opportunities presented by the influx of diverse populations.

Orth examines the social, economic, and political factors influencing immigrant assimilation, providing insights into the policies and programs aimed at integrating newcomers into American society. With a focus on civics and citizenship, "Our Foreigners" reflects the prevailing attitudes and debates surrounding immigration during a pivotal period in American history. This volume serves as a valuable resource for understanding the historical context of immigration and its enduring impact on the nation's identity.
