From Alien To Citizen

From Alien To Citizen

Journey through the riveting life of Edward Steiner, who dedicated his life to understanding how America could welcome immigrants from all corners of the globe, each with their own unique cultures, traditions, and expectations, and meld them into a unified nation. Unlike Europe, where people move between countries but rarely assimilate fully, America stands out as a cultural melting pot, and Steiners experiences provide a testament to this. Starting as a penniless immigrant, Steiner rose to become a successful figure, devoting his life to easing the transition for fellow immigrants. As a gifted writer, he sheds light on his personal experiences - from grueling labor in mills and mines, encounters with the justice system, and the trials of the open road, to his transformation from a Jewish immigrant to a Christian minister, University Professor, and renowned immigration scholar.
