The Problem Of Americanization (1920)

""The Problem of Americanization"" is a book written by Peter Roberts and published in 1920. The book discusses the challenges faced by immigrants in the United States during the early 20th century, particularly in terms of assimilating to American culture and society. Roberts explores the tension between preserving one's cultural identity and adapting to a new way of life, and argues that Americanization should not mean abandoning one's heritage entirely. He also addresses issues of prejudice and discrimination towards immigrants, and suggests ways in which the American government and society can better support and integrate newcomers. Overall, ""The Problem of Americanization"" provides a thoughtful and nuanced analysis of a complex issue that remains relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Now retired, Peter Roberts and his spouse Glenna divide their time between an art-filled "pied a terre" apartment in Ottawa and a country house in the Gatineau hills where he is at work on a new book on the return to the homeland campaign which saw so many misguided Canadians of east European origin lured to return to the misery of their communist ruled ancestral lands.
