Our Slavic Fellow Citizens (Classic Reprint)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Slavic Fellow Citizens Convinced of this, I spent the greater part of the year 1905 in austria-hungary, studying emigration on the spot, and over a year in visiting Slavic colonies in the United States, ranging from New York to Colorado, and from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to Galveston. California was unfortunately not reached. One autumn was spent as a boarder in the family of a Bohemian workingman in New York City. Everywhere in Europe and this country, whether or not furnished with letters of introduction, I found Slavs of all classes and kinds ready to show me kindness and lend me intelligent and cordial assistance.
