| Abstract | From the editor's notes: "Here once again are Yankee views about the German element in the United States. . . . Of keen interest to the editor are Smalley's thoughts about geographic distribution of the Germans, his keen analysis of their political affiliation and his accurate observations about the Puritanical Sunday, the role of Yankee vs. German women, and his affection for their food. . . Smalley lauds the consumption of German lager beer over the old Yankee preference for whiskey. He is nowhere more eloquent than in eulogizing the contributions to America of German music. Compliments for the German bakers, butchers, watchmakers, tailors and toymakers abound. He equates the German press to that of American tongue. . . " |
