The St. Josephs-Blatt, an important German-language publication on the west coast from 1896-1952, was a barometer of the ideals, thoughts, and fears of the German-American Catholic population. This book chronicles the newspaper's editorials and articles, from 1896 through 1919, as they relate to the xenophobia, anti- Catholicism, and anti-German sentiment of World War I faced by the German-American and Catholic populations of the United States.

«...a fascinating, well researched account of the opinions, hopes and fears expressed in the leading German newspaper in the Pacific Northwest of the USA. The impact of this book is that it was not easy to maintain a pluralistic society in times of turmoil in the United States.» (H.F.
