Conventional wisdom would have us believe that every immigrant to the U.S. “became American,” by choice and with deliberate speed. In this compelling revisionist study, Jacobsen reveals tenacious attachments to the Old World and explores the significance of homeland politics for Irish, Polish, and Jewish immigrants at the turn of the 20th century.
