The Confession Of A Hyphenated American is a book written by Edward Steiner and published in 1916. The book is a memoir of Steiner's life as a Hungarian immigrant to the United States, and his struggle to reconcile his old world heritage with his new American identity. The term hyphenated American refers to immigrants who identify with both their country of origin and their new country, which was a controversial issue at the time. In the book, Steiner recounts his experiences growing up in Hungary, his decision to immigrate to the United States, and his struggles to find his place in American society. He discusses the challenges of learning a new language and adapting to a new culture, as well as the discrimination and prejudice he faced as a foreigner. Throughout the book, Steiner reflects on the meaning of identity and the importance of embracing diversity. He argues that immigrants should not have to choose between their old and new identities, but instead should be able to embrace both. The book is a powerful testament to the immigrant experience and a call for greater acceptance and understanding of different cultures. Overall, The Confession Of A Hyphenated American is a thought-provoking and insightful memoir that sheds light on the challenges faced by immigrants in the early 20th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of immigration and the ongoing struggle for acceptance and inclusion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
