AbstractIn 1708, representatives of the first major wave of German immigrants arrived upon American shores. The purpose of this work is to shed light on the history of this important event in the history of immigration and settlement in America. It addresses the question as to why German immigration suddenly became a massive population movement. To accomplish this goal, the editor has selected two essential works which illuminate this topic. These works are: The German Exodus to England in 1709 by Frank Reid Diffenderffer, and The German Emigration to America, 1709-1740 by Henry Eyster Jacobs.
