Die Abendschule was a family journal published first in Buffalo and then in St. Louis between 1854 and 1940. Examining texts published in the journal during its first fifty years, Brent O. Peterson illuminates the function of popular narratives within a developing community of readers--German immigrants of the period.

"The five chapters not only deal with historical facts and ethnicity issues in general and German in particular, but most eloquently depict the painful conflict of being 'German,' 'American,' and, simultaneously , 'Lutheran,' while also having to come to terms with the new notion of corporate capitalism vis--vis Old World ideals of farming and craftsmanship."--Choice
