Description
With remarkable detail, Grazulis traces the ways that these groups have maintained their ethnic identity in Michigan in the face of changing demographics in their neighbourhoods and changing interests among their children, along with the challenges posed by newly arriving 'modern' Lithuanian immigrants, who did not read the same books, sing the same songs, celebrate the same holidays, or even speak the same language that previous waves of Lithuanian immigrants had preserved in America.
Anyone interested in immigrant history will find Lithuanians in Michigan simultaneously familiar, fascinating, and moving.
