Download or read book Italian Immigration in the American West written by Kenneth Scambray and published by University of Nevada Press. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this carefully researched and engaging book, Kenneth Scambray surveys the lives and contributions of Italian immigrants in thirteen western states. He covers a variety of topics, including the role of the Roman Catholic Church in attracting and facilitating Italian settlement; the economic, political, and cultural contributions made by Italians; and the efforts to preserve Italian culture and to restore connections to their ancestral identity. The lives of immigrants in the West differed greatly from those of their counterparts on the East Coast in many ways. The development of the West—with its cheap land and mining, forestry, and agriculture industries\--created a demand for labor that enabled newcomers to achieve stability and success. Moreover, female immigrants had many more opportunities to contribute materially to their family’s well-being, either by overseeing new revenue streams for their farms and small businesses, or as paid workers outside the home. Despite this success, Italian immigrants in the West could not escape the era’s xenophobia. Scambray also discusses the ways that Italians, perceived by many as non-White, interacted with other Euro-Americans, other immigrant groups, and Native Americans and African Americans. By placing the Italian immigrant experience within the context of other immigrant narratives, Italian Immigration in the American West provides rich insights into the lives and contributions of individuals and families who sought to build new lives in the West. This unique study reveals the impact of Italian immigration and the immense diversity of the immigrant experience outside the East’s urban centers.

Book excerpt: The City of Juneau, Alaska was founded in 1880 following Chief Kowee's revelation to prospectors Joe Juneau and Richard Harris that there was gold in the stream now called Gold Creek in Silver Bow Basin. Juneau history has been firmly linked to gold mining. Prior to the mid 1940's, there were numerous small mining operations and three major mines in Juneau, the Treadwell Complex of four mines at Douglas, the Alaska Gastineau at Sheep Creek and the Alaska Juneau at Gold Creek. Each of these mines, at one point in time, was the largest low grade ore gold mine in the world. They are all long gone. The Alaska Juneau Gold Mine (The AJ) commenced operations in 1912. The AJ purchased the assets of the Alaska Gastineau Mining Company including the hydro projects at Salmon Creek and Annex Creek. They operated from 1912 until 1944, although they were not profitable after 1941. The manpower needs of WWII made the mining operations unprofitable because of the lack of miners to operate to the capacity required. The mill began operations in 1917 and processed more than 90 million tons of ore. This mine had more than 90 miles of tunnels on 15 levels. All of these fed ore to the mill at tidewater. At its peak of operation, it employed 3,000 miners though the usual number was closer to 1,000. Over its life, the AJ produced 2.9 million troy ounces of gold, 1.9 million ounces of silver and 40 million pounds of lead. This book illustrates what the mine looked like 30 years after it closed
