Summary
"In the 1820's, when the flow of immigration was still small, two Swiss immigrant families wrote accounts of what seemed to them to be the most decisive experiences of their lives. These particular accounts relate to a period in the history of American immigration that is less well known than the more spectacular colonial and post- Civil War movements. They are particularly vivid and insightful personal documents affording valuable perspectives of the integration of the 'Old Immigration' of ante-bellum days." [from the introduction]
