Download or read book Migration from the Russian Empire June 1889 July 1890 written by Ira A. Glazier and published by Genealogical Publishing Com. This book was released on 1995 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These two volumes continue the work of documenting all 2.3 million immigrants from the Russian Empire who arrived in the United States between 1871 & 1910. Several nationalities or ethnic groups were represented in this migration-Poles, Byelorussians, Ukrainians, Jews, Finns, Lithuanians, Latvians, Estonians, & Germans (the socalled Volga Germans). These ethnic Russians emigrated in far greater numbers than indigenous Russians, as reflected in the fact that of the 1.7 million Russian emigrants who arrived in the U.S. between 1899 & 1910, 43 percent were Jews, 27 percent Poles, 9 percent Lithuanians, 8 percent Finns, 5 percent Germans, & 4 percent indigenous Russians. The first four volumes of Migration from the Russian Empire covered the years 1875-1882, 1882-1886, 1886-1887, & 1888-1889 respectively, & identified by name & various other particulars the 200000 persons of Russian nationality who emigrated to the United States from Russian territory. The pace of emigration from the Russian Empire picked up dramatically after 1889, as illustrated by the 90000 emigrants identified in the present two volumes who arrived in the United States in the two years between June 1889 & June 1891. While this extraordinary migration has been documented as part of the phenomenon known as mass migration, there has never been-until now-an account, by name, of the individuals who participated in this historic movement of population from the Russian Empire. Extracted from the original ships' passenger lists held by the Temple-Balch Center for Immigration Research, the information furnished in these volumes consists of the passenger's name, his age, sex, occupation, country of origin, place of residence, & destination. In addition, each passenger list is headed by the name of the ship, the port of embarkation, the port of arrival, & the date of arrival. By the 1890s, information provided by the passengers would include their last place of residence in Europe & their precise destination in the U.S.

Download or read book The Jewish Unions in America written by Bernard Weinstein and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newly arrived in New York in 1882 from Tsarist Russia, the sixteen-year-old Bernard Weinstein discovered an America in which unionism, socialism, and anarchism were very much in the air. He found a home in the tenements of New York and for the next fifty years he devoted his life to the struggles of fellow Jewish workers. The Jewish Unions in America blends memoir and history to chronicle this time. It describes how Weinstein led countless strikes, held the unions together in the face of retaliation from the bosses, investigated sweatshops and factories with the aid of reformers, and faced down schisms by various factions, including Anarchists and Communists. He co-founded the United Hebrew Trades and wrote speeches, articles and books advancing the cause of the labor movement. From the pages of this book emerges a vivid picture of workers’ organizations at the beginning of the twentieth century and a capitalist system that bred exploitation, poverty, and inequality. Although workers’ rights have made great progress in the decades since, Weinstein’s descriptions of workers with jobs pitted against those without, and American workers against workers abroad, still carry echoes today. The Jewish Unions in America is a testament to the struggles of working people a hundred years ago. But it is also a reminder that workers must still battle to live decent lives in the free market. For the first time, Maurice Wolfthal’s readable translation makes Weinstein’s Yiddish text available to English readers. It is essential reading for students and scholars of labor history, Jewish history, and the history of American immigration.

Download or read book Becoming Sui Sin Far written by Mary Chapman and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When her 1912 story collection, Mrs. Spring Fragrance, was rescued from obscurity in the 1990s, scholars were quick to celebrate Sui Sin Far as a pioneering chronicler of Asian American Chinatowns. Newly discovered works, however, reveal that Edith Eaton (1865–1914) published on a wide variety of subjects – and under numerous pseudonyms – in Canada and Jamaica for a decade before she began writing Chinatown fiction signed “Sui Sin Far” for US magazines. Born in England to a Chinese mother and a British father, and raised in Montreal, Edith Eaton is a complex transnational writer whose expanded oeuvre demands reconsideration. Becoming Sui Sin Far collects and contextualizes seventy of Eaton’s early works, most of which have not been republished since they first appeared in turn-of-the-century periodicals. These works of fiction and journalism, in diverse styles and from a variety of perspectives, document Eaton’s early career as a short story writer, “stunt-girl” journalist, ethnographer, political commentator, and travel writer. Showcasing her playful humour, savage wit, and deep sympathy, the texts included in this volume assert a significant place for Eaton in North American literary history. Mary Chapman’s introduction provides an insightful and readable overview of Eaton’s transnational career. The volume also includes an expanded bibliography that lists over two hundred and sixty works attributed to Eaton, a detailed biographical timeline, and a newly discovered interview with Eaton from the year in which she first adopted the orientalist pseudonym for which she is best known. Becoming Sui Sin Far significantly expands our understanding of the themes and topics that defined Eaton’s oeuvre and will interest scholars and students of Canadian, American, Asian North American, and ethnic literatures and history.
Download or read book The Atlantic Transport Line 1881 1931 written by Jonathan Kinghorn and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-01-27 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1881, the dynamic Baltimorean Bernard N. Baker established the Atlantic Transport Line, an American-owned but British-operated steamship company with service from London to New York that became famous for shipping expensive livestock and for carrying only first-class passengers. Although moderately sized, the company remained a significant presence in international shipping until World War I caused major business disruptions, followed by changed priorities during peacetime. Finally, the Great Depression led to its closure. This volume chronicles the history of the line and its absorption into J.P. Morgan's gargantuan and ill-conceived International Mercantile Marine Company against the background of efforts to revive the American mercantile marine. Descriptions of life on board Atlantic Transport Line vessels, individual histories of every vessel owned by the line, and biographies of key figures associated with the company make this the most complete account of this important player in the history of American trade.
