Focusing on the period from the 1820s to the 1920s, the book explores the factors that drew a significant Jewish population to the United States, highlighting the interplay of race, immigration, and economic development. It examines how America's search for white immigrants to bolster its economy and the importance placed on religion as a moral compass created a unique environment for Jewish immigrants. This convergence allowed Jews to experience opportunities and freedoms that were unavailable in their homelands, shaping their lives and contributions in America.
