Excerpt from The Legislative History of Naturalization in the United States
The subject of naturalization has assumed a larger importance in the history of the United States than in that of any other nation. In this study I have sought to exhibit the course of opinion thereon chiefly as it manifested itself in discussion, reports, and legislation at the central forum of American political life.
The sources of information are sufficiently indicated. In large measure I have let men speak for themselves. Some latitude of expression has been allowed in indirect quotation, in the effort to preserve the flavor of the original utterance.
I am indebted to Professor Frederick J. Turner, of the University of Wisconsin, for much helpful suggestion and criticism upon the earlier part of the work. I desire to mention Professors Hermann Edouard von Holst and Benjamin S. Terry, of the University of Chicago, because of inspiration that came from them. The work was begun with the encouraging approval of Dr. von Holst, and in anticipation of his invaluable criticism of which his sickness and death deprived me. The exceptional facilities of the library of the Wisconsin State Historical Society have lightened my task. The abundant courtesy of its officials calls for appreciative acknowledgment.
