Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the original thirteen colonies, Pennsylvania had the largest number of Polish settlers - the first in a continuing stream of migrants who injected strong elements of Polish culture into the Keystone State. This booklet follows the history of the Polish presence into the Revolutionary Era, with the stories of Casimir Pulaski and Thaddeus Kosciuszko, and into the nineteenth century, when political exiles from Poland found new homes in Pennsylvania. Polish Americans built a rich community life of neighborhoods, churches, newspapers, community organizations, and labor unions, all featured in these pages. (1992). 65 pages, maps, illustrations, and suggestions for further reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Primarily covering the emigrants between 1870 and World War I and their descendants, this is a concise treatment focusing on Polish-Americans' work and labor unions, values and religion, politics, and response to World War II and the Cold War. Statistical information pervades the narrative, which relates the common immigrant problems of being torn between old and new culture. World War II and the postwar mass consumption society tipped the scales to Americanization. The author deplores the lack of enthusiasm among Polish-Americans for Polish culture, faults white liberals for blaming Poles and other ethnics for racism, and resents anti-Polish stereotypes and the concomitant lack of concern about it by liberal groups. A lengthy, well-done bibliographic essay aids further study. Roger W. Fromm, Bloomsburg Univ. of Pennsylvania Lib.--from Library Journal. Copyright 1986 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Download or read book Memories of Dziadka: Rural Life in the Kingdom of Poland 1880-1912 and Immigration to America written by stephen szabados and published by Stephen Szabados. This book was released on 2014-08-13 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of my grandfather – a very ordinary man. It covers his childhood in Poland, his immigration, and his life in America. He was a typical Polish immigrant, who immigrated to make a better life for himself. Compare his life to your ancestors. Use his life for clue that may help you understand theirs. My hope in writing this book is to share the information about the daily lives of the Polish people living in the rural areas of Poland. The book also describes some of the reasons for leaving Poland, the trek across Poland and Germany to the ports, the voyage across the North Atlantic, arrival in America and their life in their new country. I used my grandfather as the central figure in this book but this is not his biography. I used details of my grandfather's life but added accounts of other people to tell a complete life story. My grandfather was not a person whose accomplishments would be in history books. However, his life is an example of a typical Polish immigrant. I felt that tying the information to one person would make a more interesting story and easier to show the impact of various events had on our ancestor's life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Polish Historical Committee Collection documents the churches, organizations, and societies that the Polish-American community established throughout southwestern Pennsylvania in the latter 19th and early 20th centuries. The collection is primarily comprised of religious programs, anniversary books and programs, dedication pamphlets, Polish newspapers, and correspondence. The materials are primarily in Polish. The programs and books have been arranged in two groups (Polish Falcons and Non-Falcons organizations) and subdivided by location where the events or services were held. Correspondence between F.B. Starzynski, secretary of the Polish Historical Committee, and Homer Saint-Gaudens, the Director of the Carnegie Institute, documents his efforts in 1923 to gain Polish inclusion into the Carnegie Institute annual international exhibit. There is also some correspondence between Starzynkis family members. The Pittsburczanin Polish Daily and the Sokol Polski, the official newspaper of the Polish Falcons of America, represent most of the newsprint in the collection. They date between 1921 and 1931.

Download or read book Spring Will Be Ours written by Andrzej Paczkowski and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spring Will Be Ours focuses on the turbulent half century from the outbreak of World War II in 1939, which started the chain of events that would lead to the communist takeover of Poland, to 1989, when futile attempts to reform the communist system gave way to its total transformation. Andrzej Paczkowski shows how the communists captured and consolidated power, describes their use of terror and propaganda, and illuminates the changes that took place within the governing elite. He also documents the political opposition to the regime - both inside Poland and abroad - that resulted in upheavals in 1956, 1968, 1970, 1976, and 1980. His narrative makes evident the pressures that the elite felt from above, from Moscow, and from below, from the population and from within the party. The history of Poland and the Poles is of special interest because on numerous occasions in the twentieth century this relatively small country influenced developments on a global scale.
