| Abstract | Novel about Michael Harm, farmer's son in the Bavarian Palatinate, who emigrates to Cleveland in 1857 to apprentice to a relative who is a blacksmith. He experiences rioting, bigotry directed at immigrants, a cruel master, a rival in romance, the Civil War, and ultimately the encroaching machine age which will eliminate the need for his skills. |
