| Summary |
"Aliens or Americans?" by Howard B. Grose is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the complexities of immigration during a period of significant influx into the United States, examining the implications for American society and the newcomers' integration. The primary focus revolves around the various groups of immigrants arriving, their backgrounds, and the challenges they face as they seek to assimilate into American culture. The opening of the text introduces the urgent reality of immigration, highlighting that millions of individuals, representing diverse nationalities and backgrounds, are arriving each year in search of a better life. The author emphasizes the moral and spiritual responsibility of American society towards these newcomers, urging readers to consider not only the challenges posed by immigration but also the opportunities for evangelization and Americanization. By analyzing the varying situations and motivations of different immigrant groups, Grose sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of the immigration crisis and engages the reader in the broader dialogue about national identity and moral duty.
