Description

An exploration into the experience of Jewish immigrants in America in the first half of the twentieth century. Asks the question: What part did sport play in the process by which these people became Americans? It is based on the experience of other imigrant groups and minority people especially the rich culture of everyday life created by East European Jewish imigrants, particularly their children.
